    hello,

    First timer here, I have a Indesit WD12s washer/dryer ,although it does neither very well ha ha. Its making a louder than normal,constant grinding noise when the drum is turning,plus the belt has slipped off twice in the last couple of months. The beast is 3 years old and I believe it’s the drum bearings which have “gone!” Could anyone please give me any advice on how easy/difficult a job it is to change them? thanks for your help in advance 😀

    There are two different sized drum shaft & bearings on this machine. If you do attempt a repair let the local blood transfusion unit know in advance. Paper thin metal drum and loads of sharp egdes. Not considered one of the hardest bearing changes, if you have the correct tools and the experience. 🙂 Removing the drum pulley can be difficult.

    Plug out if you intend to proceed further and keep the plasters handy. 😉
