A W3038 spinning at 1600 rpm is asking a great deal of its suspension, and on machines that have been moved between homes the damper mountings are often the thing that has suffered. The consequence is not dramatic failure but a machine that quietly reduces its own spin speed on every load, leaving laundry wetter than it used to be. Owners usually blame the dryer before they suspect the washer.
