I replaced the collar in my EM6910 not that long ago, and it has lasted a disappointingly short time, much shorter than the original one.
I need some advice on whether to do the whole procedure again or to replace the machine.
It's already on it's second steam pump, on/off switch. The collar is the only current issue.
The collar has the step marks on it again, and most of the time unlocks itself when pouring, unless you hold it in.
I'm siding towards repairing it again, but replacing the group head, seal and collar all at the same time. I'm on my original group head, and the seal was changed not that long before the collar, but I'm wondering as it was an aftermarket one, whether that made the new collar go out of whack quickly?
I bought the collar from bigwarehouse, it seemed genuine, is there a better place to buy to ensure genuine parts?
Should there be anything else I need to replace to ensure longevity?
Thanks
