you can run a motor test and check which motor is causing the noise

Copier->Function->Install->TONER-S in service mode also makes the same noise

looks like a gear in the hopper unit. take the dev unit out and vacuum the pipe where the toner comes into the dev unit. if that doesn't fix it then replace the hopper
