Hi all,
have a Miele w1613 Washing Machine and just replaced the bearings as it had a camber or oscillation on fast spin causing a knocking noise. Advice need what to do next, do I:1) replace the suspension arms? How do you diagnose they need replacing?
2) test for the internal drum spider arm has broken? How do you even do that?
3) send someone the phone recording of the machine when the noise happens?
4) get and engineer in?When we replaced the bearings, everything was put back perfectly, and yes the machine is level. At about 800 spin the drum begins to oscillate and the loud noise starts. I’ve had the sides off while on spin, and cannot see anything unusual.
To all those who help, your kind help is very much appreciated.

Hi Robert. Suspect from what you say this is the problem but it is only a guessand that you have a rotted out spider and so its cracked. This does not always prove that fault: grab the drum with one of the paddles lined up at 6o/clock position ( because the paddles line up with the spider arms ) and put both hands on the drum just behind the door seal seal and woggle the drum up and down any obvious movement compared with the other 2 positions will tell you all is not well. However to be 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} sure redismantle the complete machine to remove the drum…..not for the faint hearted and have a look, the price of the drum complete is equal to 10 boxes worth of Kleenex tissues in tears = £425!
