Washing M/c Drum replacement
How old is it? Maybe you have a warranty claim, they do not seem to be doing
very well of late with dangerous faults and the like.

Have a reasonably new Washing Machine .... and bearing is on its way out
on the drum.
Groaning badly if you rotate by hand and very noisy on spin ......(no
shaking or vibration of machine though)
Its a Hotpoint WMUD962 Ultima
Local repair guys (who are trustworthy & honest) advised on this model
bearing is on inner drum and there is a sealed outer nylon drum - bearing
can't be replaced. (great design idea)
Needs a new drum tub, £140 from Hotpoint.
Found new one at £90 ..... comes complete with heater.
Anybody changed one of theses drums .... any tips/hints.
