My washing machine is getting louder and louder on spin cycles with
some rattling as well. Me thinks after 8 years of hard work the
bearings are worn.

Does anyone know a good supplier, ideally online of AEG spares. google
reveals lots of hits but once you drill down, many appear to stiock
generic parts or not cover the full range or appear to be in Norway.

there are quite a few selling bearing kits on ebay, bt again, they
don't indicate if these are genuine AEG spares


thanks

Does it actually matter if they're in AEG boxes? It's not as if they
make their own bearings, they buy them from bearing makers like everyone
else does.

Try a local Bearing Supplier. Take the old ones as patterns. They may be
surprisingly cheap.

It could also be the attachment points of the spider to the drum,
these tend to develop stress cracks and are often not that easy to
repair.
