Ok water has been leaking from underneath my washer apparently for awhile and just now noticed it . I am debating on what to do. If I call a repairman it will cost 125.00 to just show up and then 100 a hour labor plus parts so probably looking at a minimum of 300 to see if the machine is repairable. Does anyone know what might be causing the leak? I clean out the filter accessed from the front all the time and the water inlets and outlets are dry as a bone so what is underneath this machine leaking? Is this an easy inexpensive fix or do I throw the machine out and get a new one?

Hope someone can help soon as the laundry is stacking up. Thanks

Ps...is there an easy way to slide these big machines out other than using a 2 wheeler?

Not many people respond to queries about LG appliances and I am not familiar with them either but the following link shows, with pictures, one person's tear down of a machine similar, but not identical, to yours. This may be of some help.
