SOURCE: Dishes are not clean; lots of soap residue
Try the combo liguidgel powder packets and wash on the potscrubber plus setting. We saw a drastic improvement with this setting. I have just about gotten out of the habit of thorough pre-washing, but I do rinse heavily soiled items.

My dishwasher had the same problem. glasses were cloudy, inside the dishwasher was coated with a film, drawers were hard to pull out. tried rinse agents and vinegar and nothing worked. Found lemi-shine at WalMart (it's next to the dishwasher detergent) and the white stuff is gone! no more residue and glasses sparkle again. I was ready to buy a new dishwasher I was so frustrated. get some - it's amazing! a couple bucks and it's back to normal. I was SOOOO happy!

There are a few possibities...
check the spray arms are clear by removing any blockages in the holes, check that there is enough water entering the d/w by removing the lid (no screws on lid, there are two clips at the rear, release them and the whole lid will slide back and then off) and take the two t20 screw off the left side panel at the front you should check the pressure chamber and its hose are not blocked. Use the link and go to page 4, part 0428 and 0426. Whilst you have the side panel of, fill the d/w and once the inlet valve closing, reset the machine and watch the drainage thru the left chamber is flowing ok. You can also remove 0420 (remove t20 screw via the sump after all filters are removed) this will expose the pump impellor and you can check for any obstruction. If the d/w is connected via a sealed spigot to the sink, remove the grey hose and unscrew the spigot adaptor from the sink and ensure there are no blockages.
You have not mentioned that the d/w is not heating so I assume it is, as this could be a problem also. However, although the machine is heating the water is distributed via a motor attached to the heater box that alternates the water between the top and bottom basket. If this is faulty you will find that the d/w will clean one of the baskets beautifully and the other not at all. (unfortunately this will req a new instantaneous water heater which is best fitted by an expert)
