Trim operates fine oil topped off - Just makes a rattling sound as it is raised or lowered. Before replacing motor looking for advise maybe not motor and bearing instead.<br /><br />Thanks in advance

A bit of joint crunching isn't at all unusual. It could also be the trim rams crunching against the pads they rest on, again not unusual.

Make sure your pivot points are lubricated.
