I would go for the Beko everytime, spares are reasonably priced and readily available and the machines are easy to work on. As for load capacity I would not go over 8kg.
The Beko WTL84151W at £299.00 at John Lewis is a good bet and buying from them gives you an extra year warranty as well.

The Ebay one I found earlier which said ” last one” is no longer listed 🙁 as Dave says the A fit may be your only chace by the looks of it.

There is no logic that I am aware of with any manufacturers part number structures. My own thought would be, there will be a number range for each model possibly.
As for your part number I just Googled it and found a couple of Ebay stockists among a couple of other entries as having stock but you may need to be quick.

Bosch, Neff, Siemens and Gaggenau are all part of the same group, more than likely made in the same factory with the same guarantee and the same engineer will attend should you need it.
The Neff has a slightly better energy rating of E than the Bosch F and it’s a couple of decibells quieter than the Bosch.
I am not going to bore you on pricing structures etc but Bosch will always be cheaper than the Neff counterparts. Neff will also be a higher price due to the name and supposed kitchen specialist tag they have.
As an aside do you realise these are fixed hinged machines? There are two different hinge types on integrated fridge freezers fixed and sliding they are not directly interchangeable but can be sorted by a kitchen fitter.

There is a Haynes manual by Graham Dixon here which covers a few sectors. Apart from this I do not know oif any others.

From the very limited info I can gleen I would say first produced in 2015. Google suggests it was mainly supplied through Tesco and Argos.
If you get the serial number from it that may help a little further or ring the info through to their customer services on 0345 209 7461.

On the models I have seen it’s the night sensor. I have picked a random manual and it states “This night sensor function saves energy by switching the lights inside the refrigerator off if there is sufficient illumination in the room”.
Looks like you need an engineer.

Let us know aftrer a few weeks how it’s performing on the hot water side please. It may help others in the future.

Page 83 of the instruction manual states,
Connection to the water supply Water in the dishwasher must not be used as drinking water. – The dishwasher may be connected to a cold or hot water supply, max. 60 °C. We would only recommend connection to a hot water supply if it is economical, e.g. a solar powered supply. When connected to a hot water supply all programme stages which would otherwise be carried out with cold water will be carried out with hot water. – The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long. A 1.5 m long flexible metal extension hose (pressure tested to 14000 kPa/140 bar) is available as an optional accessory, if required. – A stopcock with a 3/4″ male thread must be provided on site. – This appliance is constructed to comply with IEC/EN/DIN 61770 // VDE 0700 Section 600, and may be connected to a suitable supply without an extra non-return valve if national regulations permit. – The water pressure (flow pressure at the take-off point) must be between 50 and 1000 kPa (0.5 and 10 bar). If the water pressure is too high, a pressure reducer valve must be fitted.
Someone needs to read the manual 😉

the motor in the siemans is no where near as robust so the heaters are prone to failure

Everytime as Dave rightly says the motor in the Miele are far more reliable.
Looking at the data sheet for both there is only 2db noise difference which makes no difference to the human ear. As you are able to connect to a hot fill it makes the Miele more efficient than the Siemens.
I would return to the friendly Euronics store and order it from the chap you saw. You also will have someone to go back to if you have any questions post purchase.

Model and serial number can be found on a label behind the salad bin in the bottom of the fridge section.
