Re: Bosch washing machine burning smell inside drum
The run out is only around 2mm and doesn’t rub all the time, only when it’s doing a spin and not every wash, weight of the wash doesn’t make a difference as far as I can tell. It’s only now I can tell its been rubbing from the melted rubber stuck on the edge of the inner drum. It’s doesn’t rub at all when moving it by hand.
I have just had a good look again with the back off the machine. There is no grinding or abnormal noises when the drum is rotated in either direction.
Apart from removing the drum and checking, is there anyway I can check to see if the support spigot has cracked? The machine is 6 years old and is used every day. Not sure what sort of life I should get out of it.
Re: Bosch washing machine burning smell inside drum
Sorry for the delay. Its a Bosch WVTI2840GB/04
Well shortly after posting my initial message I found the drum is rubbing on the door seal. When I rotate the drum it would appear the same section of the drum rubs on the seal in the same place on each rotation (right to bottom right). As far as I can tell the bearing are ok as there is no playing in the inner drum when I try and move it around. Its almost as if the drum isn’t round anymore.
