since PF seems to be full of many different kind of people i thought id ask on here as silly as it seems
our zanussi washing machine has started to leave staines on the clothes.

the staines werent there when the wash was put on but now any light colours that are washed come out with bleech like marks.

normally using to much powder causes that as it wont dissolve properly, so bleaches the clothes, is the drun turning ok?check the filter,give it a service wash then half ya powder, see if it still does it

as above, also put it on a hot wash with nothing in, clears everything through then,

half wht u use,modern machines need half wht it says on the box,esp in soft water areas!

ok, ive cleaned it all out, run it at 95degree's for 2washes and we have been using FAR too much washing powder.
my other half has been using a cup full but it seems we only need 60ml of powder.

sounds stupid i know but i guess this is what the problem is.
thanks for the advice

Get an extended warranty is my advice, we had a serious rattling noise from ours when emptying, but it stopped when I removed the 5p out of the output strainer!
