Shimano Calcutta Conquest 2014 - problems

Hy!  I own a Shimano Calcutta Conquest 201 - model 2014. For some time now, I've had a problem with it in the sense that at the end of the launch, the reel makes a strange sound ... an interesting-sharp rumble and I can't figure out which  to be the cause.  The reel was lubricated, I replaced the bearings, I changed the "hammers" (brake blocks from the braking system).  The hollow drum goes smoothly and makes no sound.  At the mill, on recovery, nothing strange is felt.  The rumble is heard even if they hit harder or lighter lures, no matter how many hammers they activate or not.  Has anyone had this problem before?  Can you help me ( sorry for my Google-translate english)

It sounds like you may have the cast control knob set too loose. This allows the spool to walk side to side in the frame and will cause some noise. Check that first and let me know.

Did you oil the brake drum?
One of mine was making a bad sound and i oiled the brake drum. After that it was quite again.
