  • Hi, I had the same problem, it was a cracked seal, i was going to replace all 3 of the seals but for piece of mind i changed the whole cylinderhead. This came with a full set of seals, springs etc. So for a few pound more, you get to renew the whole cylinderhead plus the internal parts. By H1-5hine - S.Wales - 04 February 2012

    Hi, check all tubing and cylinder head parts for cracks. If you can't find any, it may be one of the seals, check these too. Seeing as the leak is happening at this part on your washer but there's no cracks, it sounds like it could very well be a seal. Best of luck!
