Mum has a Hotpoint WMA30. It's been working fine for about 15 years, but yesterday started to make a very strange noise. Every now and again (maybe once or twice per wash), it will make a very loud noise. Sort of a cross between a buzz and a squeak, which lasts about a second. It doesn't stop the thing from working, but it is loud enough to be quite alarming. Mum thinks there's also a faint smell of fish, which could be glue, or something, although I can't detect it myself. Has anyone seen this before?
