Default leaking oil into the tub?

10 year old Moffat Washing Machine- has been no problem until it started
leaving a 'dirty' ring around the top of the tub. Have also noticed a few
small spots on clothes. It's definitely oil. Is this the transmission ( as
I have read it could be)? Is it worth a repairman's visit or should I go
straight to purchasing new?



It could certainly be a costly repair and probably not worth it for a
ten year old appliance. I'd go for a new "no frills" washer which should
be about $400


Those expensive machines with a lot of electronic controls ...in my
opinion ...are a big waste of money
