What's happening with my pump? Making more noise every day.

Hi!

Rental home with crappy built pool and pool installation.
My pump was never one of the quietest in the world. Apart from that, they have built my pump outside close to the pool itself so you always hear it when it's working.
Lately my pump has started to make more and more noise and my question is if the pump is getting to its end of life, if something else is broken, if it's just a cover that went loose, any idea what could cause the noise you hear in the attachment?
The noise has gone so bad that i now reduce the filtering time to not annoy the neighbours too much.
Again, rental house, ****** built pool and therefor very reluctant to actually replace the pump at my own expense.

Hello. Welcome! That sounds like the bearings starting to go bad. Ask your landlord to fix because your neighbors are complaining about the noise.
