The drum bearings have gone in my elderly machine of some 7 years. Is it worth repairing myself, the kit is about £25, never done this before! Or should I just wait for it to die and get a new one.
Re: Hotpoint Aquarius
I persume it is WM series washing machine. Changing bearings on these are relativly easier than new models but if you have not done it before I would suggest to have it done from a professional engineer.
Simply because even if you was to put it somehow then you have to make sure it does not leak afterwards even a little.The seals are properly placed, the spider is not damaged etc etc
Sometimes the old bearings get stuck so getting them out is not easy.
Engineers charge around £80 inc parts and labour(depending on the area) so is it worth th hassle?
Please switch te appliance off beofre investigating.
