Re: Hotpoint WMA63 drum rubbing / noisy

I think it’s either over 5 years or very near to 5 years old. I’ll check the receipt to get the exact purchase date.

I don’t think the wife would appreciate not having the machine out of action for a week to let me DIY! Fingers x’d its under the 5 years.

Re: Hotpoint WMA63 drum rubbing / noisy

Thanks Rich,

I had a look at the suspension and it looks OK. No signs of stretching of the top springs and the suspension arms at the bottom look OK too.

The drum shaft/bearing replacement sound like a big job. Is this quite straigh forward to do? From what I’ve seen so fae there is only an access panel for the pump/motor and belt etc. Can this be done with the drum in situ?

TIA.
