  • There could be a blockage in the bin, If you press the red trigger once it releases the lid of the bin, press it a 2nd time and the bin will disengage from the body. There is a small flap inside the bin if it's blocked or jammed your V6 Absolute will have the symptoms described. Just make sure the flap is moving freely and working correctly, re_connect the bin to the body and you'll be back in business. By Steve Montgomery - Wirral - 20 April 2018
  • Hi ADB. Could you clarify where the filter in the body is? I have washed the pre-filter but still have the start-stop problem. I do not have a 'purple unit'. My machine is red and silver. By RJT - Notts - 15 June 2017
  • I had the same problem. What I had not realised is that there are two filters, the long one available from espares and another in the purple unit at the back of the body. Once I removed that and cleaned it the machine worked perfectly. Note you clean the rear filter under the tap and Dyson recommend leaving it 24 hours to dry before refitting and using the machine By ADB - - 26 February 2017
