    Re: Bosch integrated dishwasher SGV 43A03 Spray arm not turn

    CJA thank you for your reply. The spray arm isn’t blocked and the arm can turn freely on the mounting. I will have to get someone in to look at it as it’s not something that either me or Mr hbrac can do confidently. I expect Bosch service would cost megabucks so I will look for an independant repairer. Thanks again.

    Woe is me. They decided to replace the compressor. The guy was here 2 hours. Now there’s water leaking from underneath at the back and the gas going round sounds like its gasping for air. Anyway he’s due back this afternoon. I estimate that the work done on it so far equals what I paid for it in the beginning ! Watch this space.

    Oh !! Thanks Don. I didn’t realise that one was manual defrost.That wouldn’t be suitable then. I’m only really interested in frost free. We are a family with poor circulation already 😆 The only thing for it is to get rid of the kids then we can have a smaller freezer ! 😆

    Re: Groaning FF Freezer JLFZW 1806

    I paid about £500 for this John Lewis one so I suppose I’m looking for one for a similar price.
    On the Bosch website there is a GSD34N01GB Classixx FF Upright. Is this the basic Bosch range? I get confused with Exxcel , Logixx etc. A local supplier is selling the Classix one for £469. It has a manual temperature control whatever that means. I thought they were all manual in that you could adjust the cabinet temperature yourself.However I can’t see that one on the John Lewis website of available freezers.

    Knowing my luck JL will say Repair it !!

    Re: Groaning FF Freezer JLFZW 1806

    Ok.He’s been back. The compressor is running all the time, as I thought, and the outside of the right side of the cabinet is red hot. He will give a price to John Lewis for repair but reckons that they will opt for giving me a new freezer as it’s still under warranty.
    Do I want another one the same??? Not sure. There are not that many tall frost free freezers of 1800mm height with 7 drawers around for a reasonable price.
    Any recommendations please. Do Bosch do one?

    Re: Dehumidifier recommendations

    Yes the ebay seller did say this B&Q one was made in China so perhaps to be on the safe side I’ll go to Argos instead .I can always take it back if it’s no good.TBH it’s not something I have ever bought in the past though in those dim and distant memories of my youth I lived in a few flats that were damp !

    Re: Dehumidifier recommendations

    Thanks Don. The Amcor is certainly cheaper ! I think there is another newer version out now. Perhaps that’s why Argos have it on clearance. I see some advertised on ebay Do you know anything about stores own brands e.g Wickes etc.

    Someone has a B&Q GDNM10A4BK4AA 2nd hand for sale.???

    Re: Groaning FF Freezer JLFZW 1806

    Ah…so it’s the compressor that’s buzzing. Why did I say condensor? Well, the temp is now -16 and it’s still going full pelt most of the time. You would go mad if it was in the kitchen. I think I will ring them and ask them to come back. I’m sure it can’t be right. Thanks for the tutorial spimps :lesson:

    Re: Groaning FF Freezer JLFZW 1806

    I’ve pulled it out now to take another look.

    The black grill at the back is cool.There is a black electrical box (cool) attached to a shiny black pot shaped unit which I assume is the condenser at the base of the grilles.This black unit is very hot to touch and running/buzzing continuously.

    I have now changed the temperature to -16 which is what I originally had it on. The compresser turned off. It was the engineer who said it should be -18 and changed it back. I will see what happens when the cabinet temp rises and listen to what the condenser is doing at that point.
    If it is still buzzing/on continuously I’ll get him back.
    Thanks for your help and advice.

    Bump. 😆
    Anyone sangria free who can advise whether I should get the engineer back ? Most of the time there is a loud hum as if it’s constantly running with a few” sighs ” interspersed.
