... is the grit on my dishes" Just noticed that if I run out rinse aid I get an exceptionally fine grit on my finished dishes out of the Fridg. It is so fine you can't even see it, but you can feel it. I would think the Cascade packs would have enough rinse aid in them to stop it but I guess not.

Is your filter fully secured properly? Is there a film on the mesh of the filter that prevents proper water flow and filtration? I vaguely remember hearing sporadically the phenomenon you speak of over the years.
I just remember, "Like the sands thru time those are the the days of our lives" soap opera with the hour glass, We are talking back in the B&W Tv days. Mother had to watch it every day.

Residue...
Other causes could be:
- slow rotation of the spray arms. One of the old UK Hoover Service Data Books mentioned problems with upper basket in a model of 'Crystaljet' dishwasher (misaligned basket, spray arm bearings worn, filter not seated correctly, etc).
- I recently found that 'Finish Powder' left a fine white coating right through the machine and the load, as if someone had been flinging talcum powder around (they hadn't!). Salt and rinse-aid were used. Tablets don't leave the residue, which makes me think that the powder has been deliberately neutered - either by Reckitt-Benckiser themselves, or by policies set by the meddling EU. Which? were also underwhelmed by the performance of the Finish powder.

Rolls, the first time I noticed this was with Finnish tabs that came with the machine. I now use Cascade.

I've noticed too, that some of the Finish tablets have a tendency to foam during the wash cycle. You can hear the machine getting slow and lethargic.
The worst culprit in RB's range is Finish Powerball Classic hard-pressed tablets, with the wrapper the user has to remove by hand. I think they've fiddled with the formula, as previously, these worked fine. It was the 'All-in-1' with the dissolvable shrinkwrap which foamed up. 'Quantum' seemed to be low on suds too.
Other sudsy tablets are P&G's Fairy Platinum, and Aldi's All-in-1.
