    are you sure its not etching?…looks like scratches….you wont avoid it, probably cheap glass wear! or very hard water, maybe adjust the water softener according to the manual

    it could well be the fan at the back, behind the back panel is a fan blade these get loose on the motor shaft and resonate very loud, it might tighten up but probably will have to be replaced.
    remember to unplug before starting!

    does it do this quite soon into the wash or later on when it is draining?

    Re: Bosch slimline dishwasher will not pump out

    if you cant here the pump you will have to re-look at the impeller again by removing the torx screw, ive known broken glass to get under the pump and you cant see it cos its clear…so be careful!!!
    the pump should give a springy kick (when turning by hand)every quarter to half turn, if you are satisfied that the pump is ok drain the machine via a bucket or run the drain hose outside, people do run fat and rubbish down their sinks that end up in the machines waste pipe.
    another thing to check is normally by the impeller is a rubber one way valve they can get stuck and stop water exiting, push on it to see if it moves, you will probably get a little backflush when doing this.
    Failing this and possible drain hose blockages then call out bosch for warranty repair!

    Re: Tecnik DW2677/1

    when you had the machine out to repair did you push it back and possibly squash up the fill hose so its now not taking water?

    Re: Bosch slimline dishwasher will not pump out

    does the machine drain through a sink spigot connection or stand pipe?
    can you hear the pump running when you first start the machine?

    Re: Bosch 1400 Exxcel, cant rid grease/detergent deposits !

    bosch machines plus many others suffer from this,years of low temperature washes and too much detergent, another thing to watch out for is body oils/creams that are used and chemicals from work clothes, i have found with the bosch machines that sludge builds up at the hardest point to get to which is at the rear of the drum!

    Re: Hotpoint drum

    maybe also check the filter and drum for coins/foreign objects as these are sometimes the cause of the paddles to break!

    Re: Hotpoint WD420 light 3 flashing

    the coding says its motor jammed or tacho…so its probably a motor fault or even module, probably wise to pay the hotpoint £90 all in call-out and get parts free and all in labour

    Re: Spec me a new washer dryer

    im a big bosch fan but i wouldnt touch the washer dryer with a barge pole!
    to be honest and every guy on here will tell you, if you can get away with 2 separates do it!
    Its rare to find any make of washer dryer that is perfect!
