    Hi Steven
    Quite a while since I done this repair.
    You will have to strip it out to see what is required, cabinet off, bolt down inside of agitator to get it off. The gearbox isn’t that hard to swap, the seals around the top of the gearbox will no doubt be the problem. Check to see is the clutch isn’t contaminated with oil etc.

    Whats your email address I send you the diags. and parts list 😉

    Before you get too far into the repair Makro are advertising these to all & sundry @ £299 in next weeks special offers.
    Whirlpool spares being what they are I would be tempted to take a labour charge and send them to Makro rather than have them ring me up a week later when they find out they could have bought a new one for an extra £100. 😉
