Mildew in LG Top Loader after multiple Cleans
Mildew is caused by leaving the machine damp and with the lid closed. You should dry the machine after every use. Once you have it is it hard to get rid of it. Vinegar is not good for the removal of it. Boil washes with bleach is a good solution. Also, go to Home Depot and get a bottle of Tilex. Spray it all around the inside of the machine and leave it for a couple of hours. Then do it again and leave it overnight. Then do a wash. Tilex is made specifically for mold and mildew on tiles.

Suds leaking out a port on back of washing machine LG WM4070H*A
I did all the steps to ensure was right soap and amount, used cleaning tablets to keep odor down. I took it in my own hands and made an overflow and vent. Self explanatory with pictures. More than a year, no suds, no odors. the exit has a short incline to avoid normal splash and the fan on secondary catch chamber keep a constant low air movement. Two outdoor electrical boxes, fan, and pvc, I know, overkill.... Hope it helps someone.
LG Tromm Not Dispensing Bleach
My wife has been complaining that the bleach and fabric softener dispenser still had water in it after washing. After removing the top to the washer I found that there are 4 components to the dispenser. 1. the solenoid (part of a 3 solenoid bundle) for the cold water, 2 the controller to the solenoid 3. The hose from the solenoid to the dispenser, and 4. The dispenser. After checking that there were no kinks in the hoses. I checked the solenoid found it had power at the right time but the flow was low. I shut off all the water and disconnected the lines going into the back of the washer I found that the cold water filters were clogged. After cleaning them (there were 2 for each hot and cold) The washer worked correctly.
