When the machine fills up with water there is an amount of black product in the water which is not present beforehand, there was a similar question asked but her complaint was oil based and she was told to fill the machine on hot wash and add bleach and leave for 10-20 minutes, will this solve the problem or is there something else I can do??

most common is lint build up. a good hot wash with a good bleach...check your manual for manufacturer's recomendation. There's various products available..bleach is the most in-expensive and works well. make sure its set on high water level...pause machine for 10-20mins...let me know how you get on

It won't drain If your washer won't drain, check these: It spins, but doesn't pump It doesn't spin or pump It pumps, but the water returns It spins, but doesn't pump If your washer spins but doesn't pump the water out, the drain line is probably clogged. In many washers, a small sock or other piece of clothing can get between the clothes tub and the outer tub that holds the water. If the clothing gets between the tubs, it may then get into the drain hose that's attached to the pump--or even into the pump itself. If it's in the pump, you need to remove the hoses from the pump and pull the item out. To remove the sock from the outer tub port, open the washer's main access panel and remove the large-diameter rubber hose that connects the pump to the bottom of the outer tub. Then, using needle-nose pliers, try to grab and remove the clothing through the port. Sometimes you can't remove the stuck clothing from below. Then you have to remove the agitator, top of the outer drum shield, and inner clothes tub. This isn't easy to do--and you may need special tools--so you might be happier getting a qualified appliance repair technician to do the job. If the drain line isn't plugged, the problem may be with your pump. Even if the pump appears to be turning, the internal impeller may be broken. If so, you need to replace the pump. It doesn't spin or pump If your washer doesn't spin or pump water out but the motor is running, your washer probably has a frozen pump pulley. If so, you need to replace the pump. To check the pulley, remove the pump from the washer and try to rotate the pulley manually. If it doesn't turn freely--if it's frozen or stiff--replace it. It pumps, but the water returns If the water that pumps out of the machine goes back into the machine after the spin cycle, your washer may be siphoning the water from a laundry tub that has a slow drain, back into the washer. The usual remedy for this is to improve the draining of the laundry tub. (Is something stuck in the drain?) Also, check for these problems: If the drain hose reaches more than about 4 inches into the laundry tub, cut off the excess. If your drain hose is lower than the washer's cabinet, install an air gap/siphon break assembly.

THE SOLUTION TO MY ABOVE PROBLEM IS AS FOLLOWS: I PHONED A WASHING MACHINE TECHNICIAN, HE SUGGESTED USING BORAX WHICH IS A MULTIPURPOSE HOUSEHOLD PRODUCT WHICH IS AVAILABLE AT BUNNINGS, HE SUGGESTED USING 4-5 TBS AND DOING 3 LOADS OBVIOUSLY WITHOUT CLOTHES, DID THE ABOVE AND IT WORKED, HE SAID THIS IS A BUILD UP OF FABRIC SOFTENER, USE WHITE VINEGAR INSTEAD OF FABRIC SOFTENER AND DISSOLVE WASHING POWDER 1ST BEFORE ADDING TO WATER, HE SAID IF THIS DOESN'T WORK YOU MIGHT BE UP FOR A NEW MACHINE AS REMOVING THE DRUM FROM A WASHING MACHINE IS NOT AN EASY JOB. GOOD LUCK
USE BORAX
