Bosch WFB1200 Noisy on spin

[kaney777]

Hi,

We have an old WFB1200 ( I think /1) and it is very noisy on spin, there is a definate mechanical clanking on the spin cycle and it has developed a small leak dropping about half a cup of water per load direcly under the sump hose.

I have checked everything that I can externally nothing is loos and the dampers and springs appear to be pushing / pulling the drum back into place.

Is this likely to be the bearings and water seal gone? Does anyone have any idea how much of a job it is to replace them on this model?

I did a search on the forum and there doesn’t seem to be any postings about this washer.

Cheers in adavnce.

Is there any movement in the inner drum up-and-down relative to the outer drum – i.e. if you push up on the front of the inner drum (where you put the clothes) can you feel play in it?
