    The WIL 133 has become very noisy while on spin with a load of washing, but spins fine when empty The machine is less than two years old .
    Would this indicate worn bearings or is there something else I can look at Thank you

    Almost certain the bearings are shot, very common on these, 2 years is a long time for an Indesit….. :rolls:

    Other than that, the dampers and damper mounts are suspect and worth a close look…..?

    You can stick a new set of bearings in though they may fail after a similar period if not sooner due to inevitable damage upon the drum shaft (which is not available – only a drum assembly 🙁 )

    Dampers and damper fixings not too costly (2 variations of fixings) to fix.

    Cost wise?….To fix bearings about £100 in total Dampers £75 maybe? It depends on a number of factors including who may be willing to do it and how much they charge locally…? 😕
