Many thanks for your pump repair video's. My Miele CVA 620 has not been used for a few years and displayed the usual 'expel air' and a very noisy pump. Managed to extract the pump (quite difficult!) stripped down according to the video and I'm now enjoying my first cup of coffee for a long time. Great of you to share your knolwedge Milen.

Your repair demonstration is excellent and a money saver. Various versions of the Ulka pumps are used in medical equipment, to pump water or chemicals. After viewing your video, we have repaired several pumps, which we would have normally thrown out. We found problems with the “stuck ball” and replaced the smaller o-ring. Now the once malfunctioning pumps are all working properly. Thank you.

Excellent video! Thank you for making it. I just purchased an espresso machine that had been in storage for years. The pump would not prime. I used a plastic syringe full of water, to force water through those check valves, by removing the filter from the water supply hose, and putting the syringe onto the hose. (I got the plastic syringe from a local drug store by asking them if they had syringes for giving pets medicine. This kind of syringe has no needle.) After the pump was force primed, it worked, but the flow was very low. I removed the pump, and took it apart as you show here. I found that small 9mm x 5mm x 2mm o-ring was hard as a rock. I replaced it with one from the plumbing department in the local hardware store, and now the pump delivers a lot of water! Saved myself $45.

Great video, with just one note. I had a loud, non working pump in a Starbucks barista that had been sitting for a while. What I did was to elevate the water reservoir above the machine, forcing water into the pump. This allowed the pump to push with water instead of air, freeing the black rubber valve. It worked, and I did not have to take out the pump.

Excellent video. After my 15-month-old Miele DGC 6765 steam oven gave an F10 error, Reddit or Houzz sent me to this video. Inside the Miele's very similar vibratory pump, model ARS MPP2.02.041.3/ST/S 208-240V, I found a broken .25"x.75" spring which I was able to replace with a stainless steel spring from amazon in a 400pc variety pack for $16. Problem solved thank you. Much better and quicker than the extortionate price Miele would charge to repair my just-out-of-warranty and very-expensive-to-begin-with oven. Now I'll be ready if and when it happens again.

Raimz Gamez, hello. Did you find a solution about your low pressure? I’ve the same problem. Firstly I cleaned all lines with (vinagre), secondly clear and air blockage with not improve pressure. And finally I checked the pump. It was working but I also change plastic ball by another (metallic bike ball). The pump, the oring was ok. Then try again to prepare coffee and not got to improve the pressure. If you have any idea? Thanks a lot. Kind regards

Hi Juan, I know it been a long time ago, but I'm facing problems with pressure with my VBM, the pressure from the water pump increase very slowly. I was thinking also to try the clean and change the plastic ball as you did, but it seems not gonna solve this. I was curious to know if you fix this issue with pressure yet😊
