Product review (5 stars): Low Flow Fix for LG Washing Machine
Just what I needed to fix lousy flow for my LG washer.  Simply cleaning the intake filters didn't resolve flow problems but replacing this valve assemble did the job.  I'm annoyed that this requires replacement, however.  Based on my experience, other posts, and the maintenance instructions for the washer, LG treats this as a consumable with a general expectation that it will be replaced every few years, if not more frequently. This replacement part is a slightly updated (better?) version vs. my 3+ year old original.. hopefully it will last longer. Replacement is simple for anyone with basic handyman skills.  Skip the repairman and just do it yourself.
