My Bernina 180 sews beautifully. However, it makes a high pitched whine. I've used the machine a lot and it performs well but I would love to know why the noisy high pitched sound.

Call you dealer, they should be able to help. How long has it been since you have had it serviced? I do mine at least once a year.

the dealer suggested a drop of oil in the hook area. Not the problem. I do that regularly. The dealer doesn't think it is anything to be concerned about. I guess he is right because it keeps on sewing. Love using the machine. Wish it wasn't so noisy.
