    I’ve got an 18-year-old Miele W3364. It’s barely missed a beat in that time – sump hose was stabbed by a cocktail stick and I fitted a new pair of Miele shock absorbers to it yesterday after a happy find on eBay (the old ones were empty and definitely decorative rather than functional…)

    Putting the machine back together last night I was wondering whether I should have taken the opportunity to do something with the brushes. Every other month or so I get a wash end with ‘- – -‘ in the display and the Rinses LED flashing rapidly, but otherwise it’s pretty reliable. So, should I…

    • leave the brushes alone until something more dramatic happens?
    • accept that, after 18 years, they might be getting a bit thin and get a set on order to have on hand?
    • order a set and fit them while dismantling memories are still fresh?

    It’s been a good machine, so happy to do reasonable things to it which will keep those 1600rpm spins going a bit longer.

    Thanks.

    this is a copy set, they tend to be ok but i often find i have to reuse the rubber mounts

    brushes have to be fitted locked into the holders and released after they are installed. on the motor

    a little tricky but can be done
