Hi,

I had to remove my sump pipe like a month ago and since I put it back it has been leaking, I think through the jubilee clip. I tried everything including changing the pipe but nothing seems to work. Please see picture. What am i doing wrong and how can I stop the leak for once?.
Thanks

They can be quite awkward to get on properly and seal. Sometimes I take a couple of go's to get it right as some can be a real pain especially round the back, make sure the clamp is done up fully tight as well.

As a point from your pic, there seems to be water marks running down the drum from above the sump hose. Also on the top of the pump and sprayed water marks on the bottom suspension strut.
 
I assume the water marks come from the leak sprying water to the drum and other areas around. Where else can the leak come from? is not easy to look but I can see water pouring down the sump hose when the waching machine is centrifugating

Hi, I managed to fix the leak. I followed your suggestion and it turned out that the leak came from the water inlet rubber pipe, which is above the sump and made it look as if the leak came form the bottom. Thanks
