Default Leaky Hotpoint Aquarius

Got a problem with my Hotpoint Aquarius front loader washing machine which I brought over from the UK. Got a leak from under the drum at the front but cant see any tears in the seal. I need someone to come out and look who is familiar with European front loaders as many of the mechanics around here wont do Hotpoint Or I can just keep mopping the floor I live in the Northern Beaches at Curl Curl.... Any help greatly appreciated

You could try Paul Whitfield Plumbing 02 9939 4884.
Local company recently came to fix a leaky tap.
Spoke to Cynthia (owners wife??) and she was a pom. Maybe he is too.
Long shot, but it might work.

Good luck with that....mine died on me on Monday( not the same make but a european one). I ended up having to unblock the "self-cleaning" pump.....full of washing and water.....I was in a right mess!!!!

It turned out to be loads of british coins, half a bra strap, bits of plastic and fluff!!!! Took me 3 hours but worked it out and its working!!!

You could always turn it in to a top loader. Lay it down on it's back and see if that stops the leak?
Maybe that should be on the "Top Tips" thread?
