as you do not know what they are (sorry) i would suggest you call a servis service engineer NOT a plumber.
as for uneconomic dont know call out charge of servis,
under 5 probably worth repair
if over 5 maybe worth repair
6 years + get new one
(preferably just a washer)

What part of the country are you in?
I am in SW London and had a similar problem with my Servis machine a couple of weeks ago. I picked an engineer out of Yellow Pages who diagnosed the problem over the phone and came the next day and fixed it.
He charged £40 labour which I would imagine is much less than a Servis engineer would charge. Thats the problem with these cheap machines - when things start going wrong it very soon becomes uneconomical to repair them.
Let us know how you get on.

Ahh my home town 
I am working in the Smoke at the moment and the engineer I used was in the Twickenham area. He diagnosed the fault as the tacho - apparently this controls the speed of the motor. Part cost around £30 + labour of course. Took him around 2 mins to replace!!!
If you are in North Mcr then I do know of a company who have repaired a tumble dryer for a friend of mine. Cant remember their name but got them from YP too. They are on Moston Lane between the Ben Brierley and the Bluebell if that is any help?
