This beast appears to leak down from the soap dispenser? Can’t make it leak on test but there’s evidence of water down between tub and front panel and droplets of water on the dispenser/tub hose. Tub hose is fine and dispenser top clean and free of gunge/limescale. I suspect that water is creeping over the lip of the dispenser cavity and have sealed the two halves of the dispenser cavity with silicone to stop this happening again.
Water pressure not excessive and no evidence of splashing down the front panel from the soap drawer front either. So I’m hoping the silicone trick has cured but not 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} though. 😕
Are there any mods on this model for this type of fault?

No mods that I am aware of Martin, I have had the odd one leak from betwen the two halves of the dispenser but as you note they have all been gunged up at the time.

Re: Hotpoint WD420P Leak
it seems that “some” leak I had one try as I might adjusting the pressure cleaning etc it still leaked in the end I fitted a new dispenser same pattern but it cured the leak!!!!!!!!!!
do you remember the old hoover softwave used to have a similar problem but that was cured by pulling the draw out half an inch.
