Bearings where do I go from there? Also the washing machine seems fine when I first start the cycle then gradually through the cycle the water pressure in the main wash part of the draw drops? Thanks All |

Hi again, I have noticed that the washing machine during spin cycle is louder than I would expect but I don't think the bearing are worn? |

Sometimes it is the motor bearings. I have had a w828 with tired motor bearings. Very cheap to replace also much easier than replacing the tub bearings. |

Sounds like the cold water valves may need replacing, at least that was the source of the problem with our Miele.
The cold water valve is a triple thiny IIRC and if you are handy can be a DIY job, just order the part from Miele OZ. You'll need your the model number and perhaps the serial code. Water valves can also become gunked up with mineral deposits if the local water is hard. |
