I noticed my turntable making a slight thud noise when spinning around. I have isolated it down to the platter - so is it ok to add a little oil (not cooking or extra virgin of course) to the bearings as I think this is what is causing the noise?
I've bought a little can of 3-in-1 original multi purpose oil drip. It has little spout for precise application. It says you can use it on sewing machines - is this ok?RobinKidderminster said:I have used WD40 + cocktail stick but I bow to your greater knowledge. Sorry to give poor advice. Agree with sewing mc oil.

it's cured the noise and working perfectly. Only applied a few drops.Alears said:gbhsi1 said:Thanks for the advice - I'm going to do it now
And the result was?
For the future get some proper TT oil (any manufacturer) as even 3 in 1 is a bit on the heavy side.
