My Thermo sounds like it needs oiling. Is this normal as wasn't like it before? If it isn't normal then can anyone suggest what I can do to stop it?
Many thanks

hi shar-la
i was having this problem too, and when i was a consultant also it would do it at demos wen stirring the risotto! bit embarrassing. so i rang tm and the guy i spoke to told me to lift out the jug and on the base of the tm you will see the plastic hole/indent that the blades fit into wen the jug is put in place. he just got me to put a few drops of olive oil in that hole part and use the tm as normal. it just lubricated the blade unit and i havent heard the tm make that noise since.
thought i would let you know thats wat worked for me wen i had that problem, but you should still ring tm and just check with them.
This one hebe? Let us know how you get on - how many drops of oil etc.

I'm glad this was asked as I had the same problem last week, I pulled everything apart and gave it a good clean and haven't heard the noise since but if I do I will try the olive oil.
