The AEG Lavamat 610 washing machine has developed a leak from the flexible hose connection to the soap tray.
I've taken it apart and used PTFE tape. This worked on an empty wash so I was quite pleased with myself but after doing a full wash there was water on the floor again this morning, albeit a much smaller amount.
Is there an easy way to make a better seal? The flexible hose is otherwise in good condition and I am reluctant to take it off at the drum as it is hard to get to, it is not leaking there and I can imagine I'll have problems getting it back on. A repair man is likely to end up costing £60+ so I'm reluctant to take that route either.
Many thanks
