Hi,

I have a Bosch Aqua-Star W1000 washing machine, and the water stop by
the inlet tap has developed a very loud (and annoying) whine. I have
uploaded a video of it to Youtube ('SDC11523 - YouTube'
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRIuIADo0Gc)) - does anyone know how to
fix it?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Sorry if this is poorly phrased - first post on this forum...

Kind regards,

Jim

Your water stop sounds like it is failing, that "whine"
is the valve within it or the gasket on that valve modulating
in the water flow...

Replace it with a new one as it is not likely to do what
it is intended to do and stop the water from flowing if
your hose bursts...
