DISHWASHER-Zanussi DE 6855 Help, advice and problem solutions on all aspects of home appliances from washing machines to TV's

[tinker]

Our dishwasher isn't washing properly and isn't drying at all. When changing from the wash to the dry programme it makes a right old racket. I've checked the filter at the bottom and it was clear. The machine is 4-5 years old.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem much appreciated.
