    Hi Sar39, I really wouldn't expect for your seal to go black so quickly! I'm assuming that this might be mould? You may be able to treat this with white vinegar. Mould is often caused by debris being left in the rubber ring which causes the water to not drain properly. Additionally if you're always running loads at 30 degrees then the bacteria that likes to thrive in the ring will flourish. In the future make sure you run a hot water load with powder every so often and then leave the washing machine door open to dry.
