Dryer making marks on cloths, not burn or grease marks, comes out in next wash. Drum does not seem to be tight. Already replaced 2 glide-dry parts.
We think clothes are getting caught between drum and housing by the felt liners, if those are what you call them. Any ideas??:confused::confused:

Tim,

When you replaced the glides, did you notice any type of damage the the edge of the drum/tumbler, were the felt liners damaged or torn.

The "felt liners" are actually called drum seals. Clothes can get stuck /pinched between the drum and seal if, the glides are worn out, missing, drum is out of round, or the dryer is "overloaded".

"Usually" the marks appear as a "pencil check mark" in color and size, and will appear at the end of the dry cycle, not the next wash cycle ?

I would have to think, if you replaced the front drum glides, you re aligned the tub and seal, which should have solved the problem.

:) :) :)
