Mend Zanussi WJS 1397W Drum Knocking

Zanussi WJS 1397W Drum Bearing Dying?

I have a Zanussi WJS 1397W Washer dryer (as you have probably guessed) and over the past few days it has developed a loud knocking noise when the drum is spinning. Im pretty sure its the drum bearings going for a burton.

Money is tight, so i will have to do it myself.

Is there a "how to" anywhere? While im not a washing machine engineer, this wont be the first time ive fixed this washer.

Any help (especially a guide) appreciated.

HI,I HAVE ONE OF THESE WASHER/DRYERS TOO! MINE GOT A KNOCKING NOISE,BUT IT WASN'T THE BEARINGS! IT WAS THE FRONT CONCRETE COUNTER BALANCE WEIGHT THAT HAD SHATTERED INTO SEVEN PEICES. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT CAUSED BY INADEQUATE BOLTS FIXING THE CONCRETE WEIGHT TO THE DRUM HOUSING. THE DRUM HOUSING HAS NINE HOLES FOR FIXING BUT THE CONCRETE WEIGHT HAS ONLY THREE? I HOPE THAT HELPS. CHEERS,STU.
