" flashing each display light for a second then skipping

Chris (gizmo)
have they any kids ?

This sounds like the rapid advance mode.
If someone has turned the dial to "end" (noon on dial) while she's (e.g.) on "prewash", the "wash" led flashes 3 times, then the rinse one, so the spin one ...... end

If you suddenly turn it back to the previous programme/temp it runs the corresponding step of the flashing light.

I use this trick to re-rinse *full drum* loads on permapress .... know that it is *verboten*, but when one's in a hurry ... no time to split into two loads, so....

Would be a different matter if a light is still flashing when the "end" one is steady (fault, but here let's touch wood)

Well....

....we have some old pillows that we were going to throw out so I thought I would pop the top and use 3 of those then lie either dispenser side or timer side down with some towels underneath to catch any water that may come out....

Alternatively, may borrow a ute and move upright...

It only has a 20min car ride to do....

Chris, Ollie is going well and now has a garage partner...We're off to Tassie again this year but with the Citroen Car clubs to 'Cit-In' in Launceston....

ha ha, sorry I burst out laughing when I saw your ride!

............Im sure it has its own gallic charm.

Is it a DS? They could be all the rage now that Citroen's launching its new DS range. The DS3 is being very heavily advertised at the minute. Looks good too.

The old DS's were way ahead of their time.

Ha Ha...all you like...

....but at 36yrs of age, this little GS has some serious oomph compared to when it was new....

AND....I'd actually like to know, because you burst out laughing (and note that I'm not offended...just curious), just what is so humourous about a 36yr old French car...

I suppose it could be something that the majority of Brits just don't 'get'...

...an interesting aside...

I also have an Australian built Morris 1100 's' automatic - that is 1275cc + 4spd auto...

The basic shape of the GS you see in the pic above is same size and overall shape of a design study done for BMC on ADO16 - Austin/Morris 1100 in 1967/8 by Pininfarina....

If the GS had been water cooled rather than air-cooled, it would almost certainly have looked even closer to the one you see here....

...but then the Brits always think they know 'better' or what is 'better for you'...and come the late 1960's didn't have the motoring forsight to build something a little left of field....

So just where is the once magnificent British motoring industry?

....either gone, or owned predominantly by Germany or India....

Sorry, did someone say that the French still have their car industry in full production???

Laugh all you like....unless you want an overpriced skateboard, you can't buy a car made in a British owned factory to save yourself....

I think that it is a good Idea

For this one reason; the miele service guy friend that I have were talking about that when I went to Utah in Sept. I had notcied that I was not get the water out when I would spin out a load. One thing that can make a difference is the floor, they are really sensative, the other is the shocks and struts with mine. They are touchy. For now, it seems better now that it is back a basement with old concrete floors, although, I hear the spring sounds from time to time when it is reving up to spin. I am told that it is from not using the shipping struts. I have considered getting some from Miele; just in case it needs to be moved.I say that it can't hurt to have them on hand. ?? Perhaps?
