UPDATE:
thank you for all your responses we determine that it was the side brush motor. Ordered a new side brush motor and No More Squealing! YAY
Again, thank you all for your help
My 4 year old 880 has starting squealing/screaming while running. I’ve cleaned everything but still scrams. I’m afraid it’s the motor, any suggestions
Is dit een goede vraag?

It’s probably the motor, if you’re an expert, you should take it apart - but for most of the time you should ask the previous owner, or company if they can fix it.
Again, what I always say “look it up!”.
Looking it up might not work…

Thanks for seeing this! :)
I had a squealing noise in my Roomba too. which I could trace down to the gearing of the extractor brushes.
The motor was slightly displaced so that the gears didn’t connect properly. I was able to fix this temporarily by adjusting the motor with a piece of plastic. but the gears were worn down already so that I had to replace the extractor housing (including motor and gearing). was not a lot of trouble and is totally doable!
I found the housing in the Roomba shop, but it was a hidden link I only found using google… I am not shure what the situation is where you come from but here in Germany this was also the cheapest offer!
