Our older Kitchenaid washer is beginning to leak. Both hot and cold water hoses appear to be sound, as does the drain hose. The leak occurs when the washer is filling, and water flows from the bottom of the washer. I was able to tip the washer during one of these leaks and observed the majority of the leakage coming from the middle of the bottom of the washer.
Additionally - and maybe its my imagination - the washer seems to be spinning louder than ever.
Any ideas what this is? If so, is it repairable? Do I bother calling a serviceman out, or considering it's age, just buy a new one?
Thanks in advance.
