Re: Loud noise when using a particular group
M20 possibly could have 2 vibrating pumps and 2 expansion valves, my money is on the expansion valve

Re: Loud noise when using a particular group
I dont think it is the expansion valve, otherwise the noise would come from both groups. If the pump is screaming on a particular group then I would say it is either the solenoid is partially blocked and if it is the case, try to descale that group or send it to a coffee tech to remove the whole thing and clean it for you or it could be a tiny block in your group head, either way I would recommend a qualified coffee technician to have a look at it.

Best to take it to a service guy. You could try taking off the cup tray and look / listen to see if the sound is obviously coming from the pump.
** But dont poke / prod or otherwise touch anything inside with the power on / connected......

Re: Loud noise when using a particular group
if its not actually the pump I at a guess i thought it might be one of those spring overpressure valves / expansion valves things on a copper pipe.
i have heard one of those "screaming" as it sort of vibrated to let water out. when it did it let water dribble / squirt into the drip tray drain.
worth a guess and a look?
