@Henene, I’ll try and change it to tacho only and do a load, I’m curious now. It became a science project lol The thing about using higher speeds is it still has to go through the 700-800rpm stage and that’s when things get crazy. It doesn’t accelerate that fast either, it seems to be staying in...

That was so extremely helpful…kinda :) I’m familiar with that menu because that’s how I increased some water levels. Using MrLaundry’s advice (which is in the 3 button pressed menu, if anyone needs that info, I found out the banging started at 600, started banging at 700, and almost walked at...

Apologies, can’t edit It’s a WWH860

@launderess, it was more of a vent but I appreciate your advice :) @Henrik, it is a wooden floor, but the sturdy pre-war Bronx kind. I’ve always expected some level of vibration but not this bad. Even my old Nexxt with completely shot bearings didn’t make such a mess. The thing is that the...

I do notice in those videos loads are less than ideal. My washing habits are excellent, thank you very much ;) I did try to resort to only washing items of similar weight, but: A full load of t-shirts knocked a stockpot filled with water off my stove A semi full load of small microfiber towels...

Miele vibration Sorry to be rehashing an old thread but I am actually extremely disappointed with my 2 yo W1. The pre-wash/add laundry took forever to appear and they still haven’t made my way over. There’s a number of issues that came out of the woodwork but what’s been driving me insane is...

@Derrick That's really strange now. Just did a second cold-fill with pre-wash without a problem. Changed to hot fill and the error happens. Are we possibly looking at different software bugs that result in the same error? That would be too much of a coincidence.

@brisnat81 That's surprising. I have a G894 and the bottom arm is fully stainless. That said, I'm having issues with a sticking inlet valve so in considering repair vs buying a new one.

Oh European Whirlpool Good old times with a drain fault code weekly at my aunt's. Taking the back off and pulling the sump hose off the outer drum only to find underwear, napkins, IIRC there was a pillowcase once. It was a fairly expensive machine, one of the Sixth Sense kind. Fun story...

White sheets are forever They are all I need to please me.

Already spoke with my technician He said he'll forward the info. Hope he gets some points. @Derrick, in the settings menu under Additional Programs there's an intake modifier. One can choose either "hot for main wash" or "cold fill only". According to the manual there's no need for...

It worked! Setting the machine to cold water fill only eliminated the error. Just ran a Sanitize + pre-wash without a hiccup. Now we know for a fact that the error comes from something related to the switching of EU cold fill only

@launderess Excellent questions I've been pondering myself. Truth be told, there's a part of me regretting shelling out the big dollars, especially considering the circumstances. Sure, a pre-wash isn't the most important thing nor does it discount how well the machine performs, but just the...

@mielerod Decided to wash at 170F, sans prewash, and my thrifty side refused to heat that from cold. Especially considering two AC units running at turbo already. I'll be running microfiber cloths soon using the singlewash option (less water to heat), will report right after.

The tech just left. Amazing customer service, amazing knowledge. That aside, he said that Miele is aware of the issue and they're currently working on a fix in Germany. He said he doesn't know how long it'll take, but hopefully soon. He explained they already tried doing an intermittent fix in...

Hot water intake I'm fairly certain it has something to do with the North American designation of using hot water for main wash fill. I've noticed Normal cycle going through with prewash perfectly fine, at least when selecting 120F or below. Miele seems to alternate hot and warm fill when using...

@chachp You could go to settings and select cold fill. Keep in mind, the machine will continue doing full profile washes until you re-select hot fill for main wash again.

Miele support Well, the phone support was as helpful as a glass hammer, and the lady I spoke with, although very nice, was absolutely clueless. I set up a tech visit.

Normal cycle I've discovered that when selecting normal, the machine will go through prewash and advance without a hiccup. So far, Extra White and Sanitize throw a water inlet code on my 860. Will be calling Miele today and report what they say.

Could it be that she's not using a fabric softener setting? Many modern washers default to spray rinses, especially on normal/regular cycles, unless a deep rinse/fabric softener option is selected.
