Side to side movement on the crank may be taken up with a small spacer (very thin washer). If the crank spacers in the elliptical have worn thinner you also may just need to replace those spacers.
bearings make a grinding noise when they fail. think about the cheap figit spinners from a few years ago. When they stop spinning smoothy and start to feel bumpy... imagine that amplified through the frame and space within the elliptical.
