ParticipantI have replaced the springs exactly as they were fit by the factory. I thought they looked a bit weird, but though…what do I know.

ParticipantConducting further investigations based on your feedback.
Top concrete weight and door removed.
I found this spring tensioner off the seal. See video:

ParticipantHey guys,
A big thank you to all of your input!
Just to clear a few things up, the machine has had this issue from day one and it was not caused over the 7 months period.
I live on my own, I do 1-2 cycles a week, so no heavy use of the machine.I still believe something was damaged in transit, but still trying to figure out what.
I am starting to believe that it is something to do with the front weight balance as it is the only thing I have to addressed yet.Another note is that when it starts turning the laundry, the inner drum seems to be bouncing all over the place in an elliptical motion.
I have tried to make a video when it spins at 1400 RPM, however, I have deemed it unsafe and had to lean on it in, otherwise I could see the whole thing disintegrating itself.
Will try post some more videos.
THANK YOU AGAIN!!

ParticipantHi Dave,
it does it with any type of load. It seems that the inner drum has a lot of play when pushed around by hand. I plan on taking the drum out completely and inspect the drum shaft.
There isn’t anything else I can think of that can cause this aggressive wobble.
