Terry Everall Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 Looks like my motor is failing as pressure fluctuates and cleaning is imopossible. Ihave had it for about 15years and its been good. Any suggestions for which Karcher model is similar and where to buy from ? Quote
Onliest Smeg David Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 I too had a Karcher for many years, and it was excellent. Bought a Bosche replacement (of similar relative price) which is not a patch on the Karcher. If I used a pressure washer more I'd swap back. Quote

Blatman Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 Have you had a goog Google to look for what might be th eproblem? Maybe it can be repaired? https://www.kaercher.com/uk/services/home-garden/kaercher-service.html I'm sure there are other places that might repair it too. Or maybe it could be DIY repaired. I mean, how hard can it be? https://www.buyspares.co.uk/karcher-spares/shop.pl Quote

Terry Everall Posted October 26, 2021 Author Posted October 26, 2021 Official repairs would be around £160 so I prefer to buy new. I wonder what its the equivalent model to the 5.91 ? Quote
Stuart Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 I've had a Karcher K5 Full Control for a few years now. Generally great but the 6 level wireless pressure control from the lance can be flakey sometimes. I see they now do a Smart Control model which might have resolved this. Quote
Terry Everall Posted October 26, 2021 Author Posted October 26, 2021 Think I will go for the K5 Power Control Quote
Kit Car Electronics and Essex AO Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 If you want something durable, get an induction motor. I bought a Stihl pressure washer to replace a broken Karcher - should have got it years ago. Quote
