    Sounds a bit like mine at the moment. And the news isn't good.

    Its a Zanussi washer dryer still under parts warranty. The Zanussi engineer visited yesterday and thinks the bearings in the drum are gone. He's bringing out a new drum on Friday. It will cost me €150.

    The drum is sealed so he can't give any more information.

    An alternative might be that something has gone down underneath the drum. A good few years ago, we had a problem with the drum of a machine and it turned out to be a problem with the underwire of a bra. It had come out of the bra and worked its way in through the drum.

    Good luck!!

    Tried resetting it, tried plugging it out for a couple of hours. Drum turns so opened up the back to see if the belt came off but its still on, could be the brushes or motor I think. Its the landlords anyway so I may just give him a call about it. thanks for the replys guys.
