Washing Machine Not Cleaning

Options
Hiya All,

I have a Bosch Washing machine Classixx. Its a 1200 spinning one. What I am finding is it is leaving dark brown marks on the Washing. I have had a look in the Machine and round the seals but cant find any dirt. I am not sure where else to look or what to do. Any ideas?????

This is my forst post so if I have messed up i apologise.

Cheers

Moneymad

    Have you overloaded the machine as this can often result in dark markings on the clothes?

    Other than that I've nothing else to suggest, sorry.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    soap and sludge between the drums, run a wash with no cloths and no detergent at 90 degrees
    If it doesnt pay rent sell it.

    Limescale build up? - I'm not sure, but my washing performance seriously degrades every few weeks. Wilkinsons do a descaler for £1.15

    Might be burns . We had one where the thermostat went , I completely melted my sons sleeping bag in it before I realised what the brown marks on other washing must have been.
