Make friends with your local Miele dealer and order from them. Our local guys get us spares super quick and with their discount (even on new Miele appliances we’ve had off them) they’re tuff to beat.
Just to let you know that my local Miele dealer is my self, i am now set up with trade account and access to all parts lists, wiring diagrams etc, all online, one part from Connect is £120 +vat, bought from Miele £68 + vat, and 2 day delivery. Didnt even know i could do it, as a bonus Miele are looking at making us a agent for repairs.
