tomgeer Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Our bosch does this too, it's only 2 and a half years old, but makes a grumbling noise (we use persil non bio tablets?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Just use liquid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Our bosch has jsut had its impeller pump bit changed, about 3-4 years old. It was making a noise like a coin was stuck in it. Could well be that part has a max 4 year lifespan, like a replicant, but less dangerous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Word of warning.... I tried to replace the pump on my Bosch washer/dryer last month... I plugged the power cable into the wrong part of the pump. I blew the machine. Advice... if you want it fixed... get someone who knows what theya re doing to fix it. It cost me £600 to get an identical machine to the one I blew up. It would have cost £30 to fix had a paid someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westcoaster Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Check the trap on the bottom front behind the flap, for foreign objects. Usually hair grips, coins and other random objects stick in there. Our Bosch Maxx is 8 -10 years old, lives in an outhouse and has only requires 3 sets of motor brushes in that time @ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey. Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 At what stage of the wash does it make this noise? All the time, start, end? Surely has to be a pure Luck thing. I can't see how using a different type of detergent would effect a noise, can you here where the noise is coming from? Marbleapple- where the hell did you plug it lol.

Bailey. Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Do the worn motor brushes make it whine/grumble when spinning? They will make a high pitched squeal and when really bad a sparking noise(not good) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgeer Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Okay, cheers, it's not high pitch so probably not that, I checked the bung too, it's empty. I'll maybe take the back panel off and watch it when its running. Sorry for the hijack Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
