MY LG DIRECT DRIVE WASHING MACHINE WD15517 IS MAKING SOME SMALL HOLES (5 to 10 mm diameter) OR PERFORATIONS ON MY CLOTHES. AT LEAST 5 shirts have been damaged. We have been using the machine for about 12 months now. We have been using water from a local well which is very hard??????

SOURCE: washer making holes in clothes

Feel the drum inside for any sharp object example a pin that is sticking sideways in a hole or the the drum spot-weld spots that came lose making a high spot.
I did find the same kind of a problem with a Defy front Loader machine. You can also check the gap between the door and the drum lip.
Hope this will solve your problem and save yourself from spending big bucks on new clothes.

Holes in clothes

Inspect the rubber seal, and steel drum to make sure there is no foreign object sticking out, which could be tearing holes in your clothes. Also check to see if any of the holes in the steel drum are dented in. or out or misshaped, as this could cause the tumbling action of the drum to tear clothes.

Holes in Shirts from LG Front Load Washer

This may sound weird but try using a slower spin speed.  The reason is because the faster the spin speed is, the more the clothes can get sucked through the holes in the drum.  On the other side of the drum that you don't see could be some metal points that can snag the material.  When you pull the clothes out, you will pull the thread that comes entangled with those metal points.

Holes in clothes

run a old hosiery or cotton wad (like from holloween) around the inside of the drum. see where it snags,
the drum is warranted for a very long time. (don't know exact)

My machine makes pin size holes in thin t-shirts and not other clothes. It has ruined several new shirts-help!

It's a nasty twisty thing, my dear. It happens in just about every machine. The only thing you can do to be absolutely sure is to put those thin t-shirts in a pillow case, Strap it closed with one of those "what's those hand-cuffy things called" things? and pray you don't get small pin-sized holes in your pillow case.
