Nespresso Leaking machine
Another repair to a Citiz Krups Nespresso Machine, slightly different to the one I repaired previously. This video answers some questions that were put to me about the previous repair, such as can the repair be done without removing the lower cover. Hope this video helps you to save the €90.00 that Nespresso wanted just to LOOK at my machine that was just two weeks out of warranty.

How to fix a Nespresso Magimix Coffee Machine that leaks water into the Capsule Box every time you make a coffee. Replace genuine parts for a fraction of the cost to send the machine away. Nespresso were not interested in replacing my machine just a few weeks out of warranty. I had never used any other make of capsules other than genuine Nespresso ones, and they wanted €90.00 just to LOOK at it...

    Thank you so much for posting this (and making the video twice - such perseverance!). I was so fed up with my 10 year old machine leaking constantly and your video gave me the confidence to give this repair a go. Also helped that the part was supplied by a company only 25 mins away so I managed to get it all done in one afternoon. My husband was totally impressed with not just me but also your video too - incredibly helpful step by step guidance! Now onto trying to sort my Shark floor steamer….thank you again!

      So happy it worked for you. This is what UA-cam is about, helping people with common issues. I did all of this not to try and be a SM guru, but out of frustration with Nespresso customer service. Good luck with the shark!

    Fab stuff. My Citiz started leaking after 7 years of regular use - so I retired it and bought a Sage. I found it in the loft a few days ago - Googled repairing it - bought a new head unit (£30) and followed this video! AND GUESS WHAT......? It now works perfectly with no leaks at all! It took me about 50 mins all in - and YES invest in the oval screw tool (£4)👍🏻 😊

    to save having to take the base plate off,get to the stage where james is at 3.30 mins with the edges unclipped. lie the unit on its side and bend the base away from the side cover,with a flat prising tool[cutlery knife will do]the center clips will release. repeat for the other side. only takes a few minutes to get to the brewing cartridge with no special tools needed. my one had an insect partially blocking the outlet😝 causing a leak coffee tasted better with insect in🤣

    My Magimix machine leaked too, result was more coffee/water? in the capsule container than in a cup. It was caused by blocked holes in the disk that's in front of the capsule, it has 25 very small canals and 9 were blocked and others might be blocked partly. Thorough cleaning was difficult without dismanteling the machine. I managed too open the machine,i managed to unscrew 2 screws,2 others were released with force without damaging the plastic wings of the machine on the outside, on the inside there was damage but not visible at all when the machine's closed. The disk could be released and cleaned,after cleaning in hot vinegar using a nailbrush all 25 canals were open again and the machine never leaked since then. Assume the pressure is too high for 15 open holes and some partly closed ones so the coffee and water search for a way out and found it ending up in the capsule container..... The exotic oval screws are the biggest problem to solve the problem that can be solved so easily. If you look at te oval screws you might think they aren't screws,they look like pop rivets.

    Firstly, what a wonderful video - both precise and easy to follow and, more important, leads to a successful outcome, as it once again works perfectly. There are only a couple of things I would add. Firstly, I think James was very unlucky with his machine ,as I've had mine a number of years before the "water tray" problem ocurred. Because mine was older than James' machine, I gave my Magimix Nespresso a really good clean whilst it was in parts and before I re-assembled it. I did take James' advice and I bought the oval screwdriver as this made unscrewing the base very easy, other than the comment about having the last corner of the base "difficult" to separate. But it does come off. The only thing which might catch somebody out was that the old M190 brew unit (the bit that needed replacing) was attached to the unit with four T10 torx screws - and you got it, I didn't this size screwdriver! So, having purchased one, problem solved. Overall, a successful replacement following a perfect demonstration on how to do it. Thanks Paul. Peter McCaffrey

    I had a go at taking the brew unit apart and it seems easier than what you have already done to get to the brew unit. Less chance of snapping plastic tabs and easy to put back together. I only found one D-Ring seal... DRings are tricky to find 'off the shelf'. I tried BS125 2.62mm Section 33mm Bore EPDM Rubber O-Rings which seems a little small but seems to have fixed the leak for now. So, if you got this far, I recommend trying just replacing the seal. Maybe try a very slightly bigger one. I don't know how long this fix will last...

    Thank you so much for posting this video, it has been amazing. I have dismantled my 11 year old Nespresso Milk Citiz machine (and without the oval screw, screwdriver and pliers, used a credit card and a butter knife😂as my screwdrivers were too thick- must update my tool box). I’ve now ordered a new unit from Magzimix and I’ll come back to your video for reassembly. You explain everything so thoroughly, and your video gave me confidence to tackle this project, even with weak hands (used my husbands hands for pulling the case off, it was a cringe worthy moment, but successful). Thankfully I have a spare machine, whilst I await for the £30.00 (plus £5.00 48 hr delivery) part to arrive. It’s really annoying your machine’s brew unit gave up after only 2 years😮, and Nespresso wouldn’t honour a free diagnostic. Once my machines have both given up and no longer repairable, I’m considering getting a bean to cup machine as Nespresso’s capsules have escalated in cost, and their customer service has gone down. Thanks once again James for your time and knowledge share.

    Oh my gosh thank you so much for your vid. My old machine was a wedding present for our garden studio, and sentimentally I didn’t want to replace the machine as one of the couple who brought it for us has passed away. I now feel confident I can replace brew the unit myself 🎉🎉 . The joy of emptying my capsule drip tray every 4 capsules was wearing me down😂!!

    Thank you for doing this video James, it was a real help. Here in AUS, the manufacturer wanted AU$240 up front just to get them to take a look at it! With the info you put in this this video, and the special tool to remove the elliptical headed screws on the bottom and a replacement coffee difuser (?) - the part that was leaking, I was finished in under an hour and cost less than $100. Great work James, much appreciated. Two thumbs up!

The smaller of the 2 hoses had come off from inside the main body before I had it apart and now can not see where it connects inside the main body. That’s the only thing stopping me from putting it all back together. Thank you if you do manage to reply

    Thank you very much! Couldn’t work out how to take the cover odd. It is so evil to have those really subtle oval screws. Cynically designed to stop us repairing the machines and forcing us to use their expensive repair service or buy a new one. Saw another video suggesting that it usually is the percolation plate so hopefully when I eventually get it open I will be able to unblock the holes.

    Really helpful video, thank you. My machine is a Nespresso Essenza but the principles apply to lots of 'original' machines. In my case I also followed another video that complements this one very well and I replaced a rubber O ring inside the brewing chamber. That fixed my problem - I did have hot water coming out from beneath the lever, but no more. Thanks again.
