Replacing bearings.
Looking at the drum movement and noise in my 7kg LG, I assume my bearings are shot. Have'nt taken apart yet, can see no belt so assume direct drive, how easy is it to replace bearings and do I need front and back bearings as well as seal to replace. Not a bad diyer.

Hi Jaffa, replacing washing machine bearings is a tough job. You'll need to take the back of the machine off - there should be a belt back there on a pulley - you'll need to remove both. From there you'll be able to access the bearings, however they may be riveted in, which makes it a very difficult task replacing them.
