In some designs bearings have pretension one way or another to reduce bearing play to minimu and a standard problem that will give accuracy problems sooner or later is that the pretension thingy is exhausted, broken or something loosened up and it normal give looseness pattern of 1xRPM multiples, my guess is that this then excite some resonance at the odd freq. but may be wrong. You may also have something inside turning where it shouldn´t. A thing that looks like a tube may include some magic mechanics inside, once you see it taken apart or the drawing.... and some is real simple. Some designs I still can´t realize they can work and still they do for 20 years of daily use. On the machines I have seen this deterioration of pretension is a much more common cause of bad operation than common bearing faults. Bearing faults come with failed seal or a crash, here they say if you accidently knock off a thing of the size of a M8 bolt thread you have most certainly broken the bearing, lees than that it makes it most of the time.... So if it is of a kind where pretension can be checked try to do that. Otherwise send it for service that´s only btw. 3 and 30 KUSD or so. So it´s not unusual they run until it produces bad parts "to make the most of it". I think one reason for the wear problem is that they stuff the machines with tools that are many times larger than the spindle was made for so they get short life length of the spindle parts, but that´s what I think not the tool makers.
