AEG Favorit 5040 Dishwasher leaks?

AEG Favorit 5040 Dishwasher leaks water from the front left corner while washing, difficult to see exactly where it is coming from. It happens 3 out of 4 runs, sometimes it is completely dry. Can't see anything wrong with the door seal, and otherwise it works fine! Any suggestions before I bin it?

I followed advice from a friend and did an empty wash with a good slug of descaler, in case the fill level gauge was clogged with scale, but that did not really work. I eventually found that the upper tray slider supports were not always going home properly, one or other were sticking and maybe preventing the door from closing properly. So I now press both home fully before closing the door and no more leaks - so far!
