Since most new washing machines get terrible reviews, we decided to basically rebuild our existing one. The transmission was leaking oil onto the floor, sometimes the machine would smell hot. Otherwise it was still working fine. Since I was to have it all apart, I decided to also change the clutch, brake and water pump. I was also able to thoroughly clean the inner and outer drums since they were quite gross with old soap scum and God knows what. Removing the outer cabinet was the trick to making the job much easier. The how to videos are great and are an absolute must for anyone who wants to try fixing it themselves. I was impressed with how quickly the parts arrived. I ordered the parts on a Thursday evening and received the parts two days later on Saturday! The machine is much quieter now and is working great. Hopefully we will get many more years of service from this machine.
