Does anyone have an issue with the cartridges leaking a little bit? I noticed it last time I changed the cartridge and I wiped it out really well. Then, today I went to change the cartridge and it looked the same as last time. I thought maybe I had a bad cartridge or something last time but I don't know if I would get two in a row. The end on the cartridge looks OK from what I can tell. I don't know if I have an issue I should call on or if this is normal and I just live with it.
I have been faithful at running the AutoDos cleaning program when the reminder pops up but this seems to be more an issue with a seal. |

I don't have any detergent leakage at all and I've had the machine for 2+ years. I agree with Henene that running the cleaning program will not help with this since it is for cleaning the pipes and pumps out. It looks like only the phase 1 detergent has a problem because it is the one that has the blue tint. |

Hi Chachp - Miele recently changed the design of cartridges, which caused a host of problems including leaking, and also the valves not letting air in, as the machine sucked the detergent out which led to cartridges shrinking down, moving out of their position, and then machines showing "insert cartridge" message- happened to my machine and I got the service team out and they said there is nothing wrong with your machine, its the cartridges and Miele were working on a fix...
There are so many complaints about it on Miele UK's website, under reviews for these cartridges - read these links for the UK reviews: www.miele.co.uk/e/miele-u... www.miele.co.uk/e/miele-ultrapha... Thankfully, Miele have amended the design and my last two batches of cartridges have had no issues with leaking, or the valves not letting air back in - by the looks of it, those amended cartridges haven't reached your market yet, which is really frustrating, especially because neither the machine nor the cartridges are "cheap" Hope this may have helped, somehow! |
