NESPRESSO CITIZ - step by step disassembly and clean Turmix TX170 

Thank you so much! I've just disassembled, cleaned and reassembled my CitiZ (Nespresso D110) with your help. My machine is a bit different from the one you show in the video, but sufficiently similar for me to do it. The machine is now 13 years old and appears to be working like new.

Thank you for the instructions and the very detailed video. With this help I was able to repair my CitiZ which was clogged - basically only a cleaning was needed on the plate with the small holes. It is a shame on DeLonghi, that this easy cleaning needs a disassembly for what the equipment is not designed. Repair instead of replace, produce less waste!

Worked great on a Magimix Citiz, just had to pry the coffee spout off before prying the sides free.

If I could give a thousand likes, I would! Thanks for your time and help!

Great video, Adrian. Made the dissasembly, cleaning and assembly process very very easy. Thanks to you my Nespresso machine is back in perfect shape

Great and informative video. With your help I could repair my TX170 and now it works fine again 👍🏼 Thank you very much and greetings from Austria 🇦🇹

Thank you so much. With your step by step guide and my patience,trial and error I succeeded and fixed an original machine! Once it was all opened and cleaned there was no more leakage! Mine was a magimix and a little different but easy to adjust to my citiz. Thank you!

Thank you, this helped me clean our Citiz. Unfortunately I had just bought a new replacement, which I will keep as a spare. Apart from the 4mm oval “industry standard” screws and plastic panels, it was pretty easy when following your cleaning instructions. Cleaning that plastic filter should be easier, it almost feels like a “designed to fail” bottleneck. After cleaning it ran like new, not a drop after multiple cups. Very pleased with the result. I also took a look at the o-ring which was more difficult than expected and in my my case unnecessary. There is a metal shim / spring that can easily be placed the wrong way. It is amazing how much plastic these machines are, explains the “relatively” low price. Long story short, again thanks for putting this online.

Thank you! I also recommend zip tying the end of the tubing that connects to the pump. I think the vibration of the machine eventually knocked it off and water was pooling under the machine.

Great video and very helpful. But misses the KEY o piece of info right the beginning….What side are the “oval” screws and how do you getthem off?

Almost Sounds like Arnold Swarzenegger .. doinga tear down video... Love it..

Thank you for your Videos. I saved several euros by repairing!

What is the name of the screwdriver you used to unscrew those egg-shaped screws on the lower part?

Many Thanks, cleaning the round gauze worked, didnt need to change the o-ring

Thank you very much for the video! Tomorrow I will make repairs! If I succeed, I will write!

Thank you I am going to try this on my machine. Regards from Miami

Thank you very much. My machine is still leaking water do you have an idea where that is coming from

If you already have a screwdriver set with various special bits, then try the SP10 (Spanner bit size 10) It works great on my Citiz.

Great video, helped a lot. One question, what is the size of the o-ring that you replaced?

Thanks for the video, it's help me solve my issue

Thanks! I was able to fix my machine.

Great video Adrian - it helped me disassemble my leaking Citiz! It seems like I need to replace the O-ring in the brewing unit; what are the exact specs for that O-ring? You mention 20mm, but it's more like inner diameter of 32 or 33mm and thickness of 2 or 2.3mm (= external diameter of 36 or 37mm)? Haven't been able to find the specs yet, so would be really helpful if you have them and could share ;-)

Great video. Im in need of a pressure relief valve. Anyone know of where I could purchase one?

thank you very much for your clearly explaination

Hi Adrian, I watched yours video, disassemble machine and after I removed a coffee capsule holder to check a rubber some metal flat ring fall out. It is waved and open 🫣👀 should I exchange it or put it back? Many thx

Do you know the size of the o-ring? Mine looks perfectly fine, but I have thoroughly cleaned the spout head and the micro holes leading to it, and it is still leaking inside the used capsule chamber. Any suggestions?

@benassy69 thank you for your guide. I have followed all steps and machine got cleaned up. However, water is still pouring into the cups chamber. The cups are not perforated at the end. Also without cups it partly pours into the chamber, so there is a leakage there. Any ideas what I could try?

Thanks for this video! My Citiz works except I cannot reset the brew times. When I push either button, it only runs for a couple seconds. I can hold the button to keep it flowing, but even then it shuts off. Not sure if there's a replacement upper command console, or if that's the issue. Maybe someone else has had this problem.

Thank you. Diffuser plate clean and new O ring but still leaks clean water. Any ideas?

Hi Adrian, I just disassembled and clean up inside, the o-ring doesn’t seems aged and the filter isn’t blocked either. I cleaned them all but the water still pour after I tried to brew pure water without any capsule inside. The water is pour inside the chamber and go into the waste basket. I think it is at least 20ml each time. It cause my wooden table surface expanded after absorbing the water 😢 and also waste a lot of water. Do you think change the O-ring will help?

Mine can't turn on suspect heater element sensor needs replacement.how to disassemble the bottom to have access to thermal sensor

Hey thanks for the video. Where do you buy the oring? The inside if it is flat isnt possible to find it anywhere cheers

Adrian your videos are excellent. Can I send you a video of my CitiZ problem? Water leaks out at the entrance to the thermoblock.

Hello! How do you do? I found a pin with a small spring, and I don't know where this part is from, can you help me?

Hello I changed the oring on my nespresso krups xn7100 and cleaned up the coffee remnants and it continues to pour water out. can you give me a hand

Where do you find the tool to open the screws?

Sensationel! you have the code of the oring? Very thanks!

I have a delonghi en110b coffee maker and I don't know how to clean the capsule holder area because I haven't been able to access it. I have disassembled the first parts: the cover and the rain gutter but I cannot clean the filter that perforates the capsule because I don't know how to disassemble it. Can somebody help me? Thank you

Hello Adrian from Sydney Australia. Where did you source the o ring from, online maybe. Please help as I have really cleaned this machine well and I am ready to re assemble. Big Thanks.

A lot to do but it works 😀

hello, I couldn't find the solution I needed in any of your videos. Water also flows into the capsule holder when I make coffee, half into the cup and part into the holder. I see where it's going, but I don't know the solution, have you encountered such a problem? If you can speak Hungarian, maybe I can explain it more clearly.

Hey can you help me out with my machine the water is unable to dispenser. I tried many tricks nothing is working for me please can you help me.

Great job
