asked

There is a strong oil-like odor after washing a load in my Maytag top-loading washer, which is about 5-6 years old. The odor has been present for about 3-4 months, and despite trying various cleaning methods (affresh pods, vinegar, boiling water, javex), the odor persists. When sliding fingers under the plastic plate where the belt is, it feels greasy, and the grease seems to have spread on the inside of the plastic cover. What could be causing this issue, and how can it be resolved?
