After washer has finished it leaves a oil residue on clothes and side of bowl. It also smells when it does this like grease
If it is grease that is in the tub then the trans is shot. Thats the only part that would result in this. Very pricy part but if you want to order it go to marcone.com with your model number and you can get the parts. I would not recommend fixing this, costs almost as much as new unit.

Front load washing machines develop a musty smell over time for several different reasons. Mostly due to using to much soap or the wrong type of soap. Since FL washers use much less water than traditional top loaders, regular soap with all the fillers and high sudzing agent within can not be rinsed out of your cloths or washer. The smell is caused by bacteria feeding off the soap scum residue left behind. Be sure you are using a HE detergent as is recommended by the manufacture.
Run and empty load with 1 cup of bleach placed in your soap dispensor and hot water to clean your washer. If the problem persists try "Washer Fresh" a cleaning agent specially made to take care of this problem.
After smell is gone repeat once a month to prevent reoccurace of problem

Sounds like the suspension for the drum is having problems - there are usually springs holding the drum up and acting as shocks - one of the springs may have come off during an unbalanced load.

there is a filter under the washer door behind the panel...its white just unscrew it and clean out the filter and that should solve your problem.
