There are some on eBay for £15 that might do the job so I emailed them all but none could tell me the the max width when open. They needs to be able to open the spring from a 60mm unstretched spring to about 100-120mm spring expanded. I bought some from a £store on a whim, long nose bent...

After a few weeks I noticed a smell again , so I took the small bottom part front panel off and there's water again in the bottom of the washer. I decided to monitor on spin but from the front were-as last time I looked from the back. I have now found the cause of the leak, it's the drum seal...

OK, thanks for that advise Mystic Meg I shall keep your special powers in mind look into my eyes :shock:

well don't bother next time :)

will do , thankyou :)

I'm more than competent with a camera and threading a few pipes in without puncturing the old, thanks for the advice

Thanks for the advice , the advise I took was from a Vaillant engineer while serving the boiler, the boiler has been in for 4 years. His words were 22mm would be sufficient but he couldn't understand why it was low.The joint were the pipe goes from 22mm 15mm was not in view for the engineer I...

I had my combi boiler recently serviced and the guy said that the gas was low 12.33mBar. We only have the one gas appliance but he left a warning note to get it sorted. He said that the pipe to the meter and to the boiler was 22mm so he couldn't understand why but after a further inspection...

I've not tbh , I just thought it would be a simple like for like. Vaillants answer was "We have swapped out with a better controller" they are wrong

too right, you would think that controlling the different temps throughout the day would be take priority when designing the SW for a controller. Seems like it takes second place to 20 languages and a timer for when I'm away which is never as all my monies is spent on the boiler. Are there...

Yeah I've got the manual but I find it strange you can't control the temp of each of the 3daily timer settings. After digging deeper and looking at all the vaillant timers it seems for some unknown reason this option has been removed. You can now set the timer to turn on/off 3 times a day but...

My vaillant VRT 392F conked out so the engineer replaced with a like for like with a 350F as they no longer make the 392F. My question is, my old 392F timer would allow me to not only set 3 timers per day but it would also allow me to set the temp of each of these 3 on/off settings. This...

Thanks for the advise, I would have never discovered the leak without watching and filming it while on spin. The price of the fix ? = £2 I've noticed as well it dries the clothes 10 times better on spin. I think this is because the pump was losing suction/drag due to the leak and air getting...

problem solved !! Turned out to be the original screw wire clamp around the top of the hose that just wouldn't seal the hose no matter how tight I screwed it up. I replaced it with a 70mm-90mm jubilee clip from b&q made sure I got it snug and the rubber hose right up to the top and...

Thanks for the reply, I purposely put about 4-5 large towels in for the video as it seemed to be worse when the machine was fullish so it might be the towels that were hanging on to water abit longer. Both pumps were replaced a few months back and I have lowered the drain hose. Would you...

Here is a video of the leak. I tightened up the bellow hose clamp pretty tight. It's really hard to determine if the leaks from the bolts on the tub housing or from the bellow hose. It does give the impression it's from the hose which I will change when it arrives then try it again...

Spooky that , because I have just done that. I filmed and took pictures while it was spinning from the back going inside and underneath and it is leaking from the main drum. Were the 2 halfs of the plastic drum meet there are 2 bolts this is were water starts gushing out. The water then must...

I'm at a loss as to why and were the water is coming from. It flooded the kitchen when on spin. It seems to do it when the washer is say over 1/2 full. So far I have ;- Checked all internal hoses & drain hose, dispenser hose (under stray) main bellows drain hose (under tub) and replaced most...
