Bosch WFF1401 - slowly fills with water and has a small leak?

I have a Bosch WFF1401.
We recently moved house.

I now find yesterday and today that even when there is no wash on, water is slowly filling the tub.

There is also a small pool of water underneath the machine.

Note - the following are completely dry:
1. Hot inlet fitting
2. Colt inlet fitting
3. Outlet waste pipe

The questions are really -
What could be the cause? Can I fix it?
Is it worth just investing in a new machine (15 years worth of use with no problems up to now)?

Many thanks

Slowly filling with water means the inlet valve is not closing ,it could be and that is almost certain a small foreign object in valve or the seal just worn out,very easy to check and replace if you got some tools,water leaking could be just a perish pipe or pump seal perished, best to open and look for it
