My Whites Come Out Grey and Yellow

I have a Hotpoint Aqualtis washing machine that now makes my whites come out slightly grey? Any ideas?

RE: My Whites Come Out Grey and Yellow

This is usually the effect of "cheap" detergent not your machine. There are a couple of solutions:
1) Try purchasing a gallon of white vinegar and pouring it into your washing machine. Fill with cold water and run through the cycle.
2) Add 1/2 cup baking soda to your your wash when you add the soap.
3) hang your clothes outside to let the sun naturally bleach them.

There is a product in the US made by Rit dye company that you can put in with a load of whites to help take the discoloration out. There may be something there similar.
