Bosch WFO2467 Very Noisy Spin Cycle?

[matthewh]

Hi,

The above is making a very loud constant noise during the fast spin cycle.

Do you think it is brushes or drum bearing – machine is 4.5 years old and has had a hard life what with 3 kids.

I have replaced brushes before on an old Hotpoint, so is it similar on a bosch.

How difficult are the bearings to change if it is that?

Many thanks

Matthew

brushes are very similar, but if its the bearings, it aint pretty, tub has to be split… and i think youll have to take the tub out to do it

what sort of noise are you getting?

There is a lot of movement when the drum is tucked by hand.

There is a whirring noise when spinning the drum by hand.

The noise on the spin cycle is a constant loud spinning sound, much like the normal spin cycle only a LOT louder.

If it is the bearings – does it sound like a time to replace rather than mend?

all depends if the drum shaft is worn – if it is .. then bye bye
