For the poster and for anyone else. If light grey dust that is usually a loose or broken concrete weight but that is not overly common on Bosch but can and does happen but you do not give the model number only the series name: there are however several Bosch / Neff that are more susceptical than others in particular the models with the two separate front weights, usually it is the right hand side one that breaks its top bit off that then fails and gets wedged between the tank and the chassis about 4 inches in from front to back! However the dust just might have been a red herring unless looks like bits of concrete. Because the drum spider can crack causing the whole inside to go off center causing one hell of a banging noise – sounds, usually, like a jack hammer. The third thing is worn out suspension which is pretty common on Bosch ( and other brands that also use the same suspension legs – bought in parts ) caused by a towel load going way out of control within the drum and the whole tank unit whacks the side chassis of the machine with a loud bang and the whole machine can dance forward but without the flare and grace of an Argentinian doing the tango!!.
