my two mp 40 (2 years) nerves. rattle and hum it like crazy.:mad2:
I've cleaned it up, disassembled, re-set and nothing helps! and I have more than 400 € paid !! the service here in Germany is **** and just said that this was normal. yeah, is right! I regret the purchase of this pump again, every day. :mad2:
 
thanks, but I've already done several times without result! rattle them non stop
I suppose the rattling is from the wet side and humming from the dry side. Sadly the "quality" control for dry side isn't the same. The unit which I bought in 2010 doesn't hum whereas the unit I bought in 2012 hums, noticeable when u turn up the speed (last 3 leds speed range).
As I seldom use that speed range so no one hears it till last wk I tried and my wife told me she heard someone singing!!! There's nothing u can do to the dry side.
For the wet side,
1)u can press and hold the mode button till the center knob flashes white. The speed of the pump should be reduced.
2)Place your ear onto the glass, listen for the rattling sound.
3)using one hand slowly adjust the wet side, u should be able to hear the difference in the loudness of the rattling.
4)after u have adjusted the wet side, press and hold the mode button to wake back the pump.
5) place your ear to the glass again and listen and minor adjust slowly as the pump is in fast speed.
The reason for step 4 & 5 is I ever encountered once I adjusted the wet n dry side but after a while I heard rattling sound. Somehow the wet side has moved....? I use the magnetic glass cleaner and clean again the glass and solve the problem.
Hope it helps.
 
many thanks for the tip! Unfortunately that did not work :(
now i have bought 2 Tunze 6095 incl. controller .. finally silent :)
 
Perhaps your rattling was on the dry side not the wet side. Did it sound like clacking marbles on the glass if so it may have been a ball bearing issue on the dry side
