Had exactly the same problem at the weekend. Took the bushes out and cleaned them lightly with a file - reinserted and the machine works fine. Bushes were very short and I have ordered a pair from www.appliancepartsdirect.co.uk (note their website said £12 each but in fact they are supplied in a pack of 2 apparently) £3.50 for postage

yes sounds like the brushes need replacing. they are fairly cheap and easy to replace.
