Has anyone had any issues with their Sonicare getting really loud after replacing with these heads?

Yes, mine gets loud after brushing only a few times with the new head on. I've gone through the entire 3 pack in just two months because I can't stand the loudness. I wonder if it is possible that there were generic heads in the package?

Have not noticed louder noise, however do notice the brushes swing faster. That might be what you are registering as 'extra loud'.

Yes! These heads made the inside of my toothbrush rusty and then it got really loud! I've never had this problem before. Now I take the head off after I brush my teeth so it doesn't rust.

I've used generic brand brush heads for this toothbrush before, and they were very loud. I wonder if the ones you got weren't certified Sonicare ones.

I've never had any problem with mine. Keep the shave head clean and good batteries in it. It's fine. IF it actually broke - I'd just replace it.

Never had that issue. I did remove mine because of the sound.Just sounded really bad.Anybody wanna buy it for $100 ?

I have an older one, and this newer one I just got. The newer is certainly louder but it is just a buzz - no clanking, which can't be normal. I agree about trying to adjust that screw. As I recall, I had it on as I adjusted it and could hear the sound change. Good luck.

I really don't know but they look just like the original brushes that came with my Sonicare. I have ordered replacement heads numerous times thru Amazon and they work just fine.

Have you replaced the filter on the side that's going out? I do that every few months and it fixes the issue! MUCH cheaper than replacing the headset - mine's going strong for 4+ years (and I"m not nice to it)

My first one had a very loud motor whine, so I exchanged it and the second was the same way! NOT relaxing. I read earlier reviews and found this to be a major complaint.

If you are speaking of the brush head, once you have the screws out just pull straight out. The belt is tight. I found the answer to the noise(if that is what you are doing) is to take and trim or carefully file to remove that small bit that may be rubbing. You have to do it running to keep it true. Once I trimmed the noise maker this unit has proven it is money well spent

Did you ever get an answer? Mine appears to be buzzing all the time too - I agree. Extremely annoying.

I have not had any problem w loud noises. Probably the only nice thing I can say about the machine.

Mine was very loud. Similar to the noise of a woodworking tool (like a jigsaw), it makes a rattling noise. Cancels all the relaxing benefits of the vibration. Getting a scalp massage or anywhere close to the head is noise torture.

@ SummerOneThanks for your input on this. Seems like the newer manufactured units are less prone to buzzing than the older ones. Also, seems like the buzzing on your first one was caused by the damage if it was a really loud buzz that you were hearing.I'm getting my panel replaced in January and will let y'all know if mine stops buzzing or not.

Mine certainly get loud. I would assume it is your source. Make sure the volume on your computer is up.

I find no difference with the noise. I have been using the brush for a month and my device seems fine.

My machine has developed the same noise. The old machine I had also had a rubbing noise at the flywheel. I have used this machine heavily for the last six months.It still runs fine. I use music to mask the noise. Its not noticable.

Mine isn't loud. I would not consider it normal. Contact the seller for an RMA.

I replaced 2 already and never had the noise. I would send it back for a replacement, to be on the sure side!
