That sounds like the bearing in the print head is starting to go. I had the Y and then the X bearings go out two weeks apart. My machine was still under warranty so FBRC8 in the USA took care of it for me.
Is the print head difficult to move in the Y direction? Have you lubricated the axes recently?
I just got additional bearings, to have as back ups in case it happens again (I have noticed increasing noise from my printer). I believe the bearings are LM6UU if your warranty is expired.
There is a recent post here about replacing the bearings in the print head.

I have the same noise occurring on my UM2, except it is x-axis. Hoping someone can shed some light on what the problem is.
