    Hi,

    I have a Rancilio Silvia and It needs to be serviced.
    Thinking to do myself.
    Any idea of what parts I need (a list would be great) and where I can buy them.

    Thanks

    The rubber seal where the portafilter might need to be changed. But that’s all I can think would be needed

    Thanks


    Hi
    Is it not working properly?
    I have one for 14 years, it has never been serviced and it is 100% perfect.

    Hi, my has 8 years and still going strong.
    The steam wand gasket is leaking and it needs to be replaced so I decided to replace all gaskets and do a proper service.

    I did my steam wand recently.
    Spent 30 euro on a kit and the tap seal lasted 1 week.
    Made on from PTFE ,13 mm od, 4mm thick,4 mm hole.
    Still going strong.
    Service not really necessary.
    Descale and backflush and wash group head components
