Hi, if anyone is willing to offer their opinion on my enquiry I would be very grateful please. I have a Miele W844 which is 10.5 years old. An engineer has been out today (from the list of approved repairers as Miele have engineering shortages in my region) and has said the Control Board is at fault. Miele W 844Miele Service ManualsDishwashers - Miele W 844 service manual - Dishwashers- question about Dishwashers. Taking in to account the part and labour, the cost will be £400ish to repair it. The engineer said he believes it is worth doing as the machine is in excellent condition but I have a niggle in my mind of whether this is worth doing. I have seen the blog about costs being relative to replacement and agree with the sentiment that expected life cycle is only relevant if a repair of this value is undertaken. Fault was lights on display were flashing but, of late, with fuller loads, the machine seems to have 'jumped' occasionally but the engineer says all shock absorbers etc are good. Bit puzzled how this might still happen as finding it hard to link that to a failed board. Would consider W5740 as replacement at £830 so is 50% of new cost worth considering? Thanks, Tinkle Many thanks, Tracey. Miele washing machines are designed, built and tested to last at least 20 years. So in theory your Miele is only half way through its life. It should be worth repairing even at £400 because you may get another 10 years or so out of it. If the W5740 you mention is an equivolent, and replacement cost is £830 then spending £400 on a machine with another 10 years potential still makes sense. On the other hand, if there is an equivolent model available, which more matches the features on yours but a lot cheaper then the scales tip more in favour of replacing it (eg, if you could buy a similar spec one for say £590). It's a close call, and there's no perfect answer. A lot depends on your attitude and willingness to replace it at £830. I would say if you are flush, and fancy a new one fair enough but if it's pretty inconvenient right now to spend £830 it might be worth gambling on getting a few more years out of the Miele. The main worry I have is the cost of repairs for Miele appears to be getting out of hand. Hi Andy, Thanks for the reply and I am sorry for the delay in responding. Actually had the engineers back out as they were puzzled by the first diagnosis. Different guy soldered in new fuse and replaced a relay,which was what I had told the first guy seemed to be a reported error from researching on web. So, it is working again but had jumped around when washing two bath sheets, one hand and one foot towel. Works fine on all other loads. Engineer agrees that towels do not go over load capacity so everyone is puzzled now! For me, the sign of a good company is how they respond when something hasn't gone well and these guys were very keen to follow up and set things right. Think we will see how it goes but will buy new if the fault reoccurs. Thanks again, Tracey. A couple of things: I was looking for a baby guide to shock absorber replacements.

Get Into this room. Picup all guns and LAW. But none of the descriptions of the work that I read were complete. So, this is my attempt. First, our W820 has no bottom plate, so access is possible through the base, contrary to what was written above: BUT, you might not need it. The steps are as follows: 1) Open the washer door. Turn off and disconnect the power. 2) Remove the top: To do this, take out the two plastic screw covers on the left and right of the top and undo the screw. The top can be hinged backwards and then lifted off. 3) Inspect the drum. Push it up and down; if it bounces more to one side then that is probably the location of the faulty shock absorber. It is good practice to replace both shocks at the same time.
