Thank you guys! I got the transmission off eBay, the old one is completely seized. At least the wig wag shafts. Guess badly oxidized/rusted inside due to water damage. Still have to open it and see if I can save it. Must be a gunky mess inside. The transmission I got an eBay I paid quite a bit...

Wanted to create this post to thank all the people who helped me through this. Both people on this website and outside this website like Ralph who kindly sent me the shaft seals otherwise costly to get through other sources. After new seals and new transmission it lives. The beauty seems to...

€1200 Gold ring. In an old Rex I took from the dump years ago I've found a gold ring in the outer tub stuck in the heating element.

I mean... Phosphates if used as an additive with modern detergents do actually create a alkaline harsh overload in the washing solution. That's especially true if you have soft water. Phosphates in detergents as our dear Launderess said were used as the main builder and water softener but since...

I think that whoever found phosphates to harm colors was because by softening the water the phosphates made whatever alkaline or aggressive was in the rest of the washing solution to be stronger and probably were not the best dyes around too...

Lidl is another german discount chain. And announced its entering in the USA a few years ago. To be honest I prefer much more lidl than Aldi here in Italy it's much more furnished and I love how they always stop particular food and products you don't find elsewhere. Detergent wise i prefer Aldi...

I mean newer graphics means is new formula. The newer cheer is the one with the drop shaped thing and blue package. Though it appears cheer still contain the oxygen. Good

I used to buy those vending machine size detergents by the case. On eBay and shipping was quite cheap. The logo means is an older formula. Same happened to gain, they reformulated and took out oxygen bleach. Too bad, I really liked Gain.

Worded that wrongly. *Most are not *that* bothered by peroxide-oxy. Chlorine being stronger and acting faster as we know do create a damage most of the times.

Well I actually do think that the quality of the dye matters, and not marginally. And that is something you will not get always or on any garment actually. But I see how a overpacked washer may pose a risk in that sense. And I could see the concern of damages But again... Products such as...

Oh really? I was sure they had it. Never used them myself, I just recall having seen them at the store and online Must have misread and or confused optical whiteners. I have one of those Indesit you are talking about, a L5, stupid machine indeed, because of that system and the ascending...

*it will be disinfected". Not infected

In Italy and in all western countries for that matter they get away with mentioning "Hygiene" hence hygienize-r or sanitize, also playing with graphics so putting a cross etc... They give the impression the product is disinfecting or can disinfect and by all means does not. They do that wirh...

Sorry. Persil power mix, not duo caps.

Oh and I meant if you knew of some all-liquid pods. Of course we do have Combi pods, powder+liquids, Dixan and so Persil for instance do have a version of Duo-caps and those do contain the oxigen stuff in powder form. But there are others I was curious to know if you knew some because the only...

Just before. "Huge issue with liquid format laundry products is for most part (except some pods IIRC), they don't contain bleaching agents. " Hence I assumed you knew of some pods that does contain oxygen bleach. .

Launderess, I was reading from you about pods-caps containing oxygen, if you recall it can you name a brand that does? We know that the reason why liquids don't contain oxygen bleach it's because you cannot combine enzymes and peroxide in high volumes in a liquid solution as during the shelf...

Vinegar trend. I absolutely agree with John and Landeress. I don't know who put around the vinegar thing, but one thing is for sure, people most of the times don't know what they do, they believe and do whatever they read online lacking basic chemistry notions. Click bait home improvement...
