I have the older style 900 ( not magnet sucker) which ran quiet for a couple of months then started 'humming / buzzing'. I tried the trick of making a washer by cutting a slice of airline and placing it over the shaft, also lubrication. This was fine for 2/3 days then problem would start all over again.
Having read the newer pumps were better, I bought a new one for £25 from a well known on line supplier which has the magnet, though in every respect the pump itself looks EXACTLY the same physically.
This new pump buzzes in the same way, most annoying, like having an airpump droning away.
Please can anyone tell me if the latest Koralia 900 is exactly the same physically as the old one or have I been sold an old model with a magnet fitting? Thanks for your help guys.

Edit I had to cut off the moulded plug to lengthen the lead for my purpose so suppose the guarantee is shot.
