My zanussi jet system 1400 has now been leaving marks on my lights wash for months now.The rubber seal is always dirty even though I am forever cleaning it.I have also checked the filter and cleaned that and also the drawer for the detergent.It is about 2yrs old please can you advise.

A combination of low temp washes and biological detergents encourages a growth of slimy mould inside the drum. Do an empty wash at the highest temperature setting and put a cupful of white vinegar in the drum. The combination of high temp and increased acidity should clear it out. Do that every couple of months to keep it clear.
Might also be an indication of bearing seal failure but not likely in a 2 year old machine.

boil wash it to sterilize it.low temp washing is great for clothes and environment but is not good for machine as it becomes musty and mouldy
