I have a 2-yr-old whirlpool dishwasher in great condition that started developing a leak at the front door. It always seems to happen after filling and shutting off and just as the wash cycle begins for the first time. The leak started small and got progressively worse. Now, it literally gushes from the front door. I have replaced the jet arm at the bottom, checked the water level shut-off, and replaced the seal. Nothing seems to help...except, it does not leak when running cold top water instead of warm or hot water. Weird, I know! Took the front door off to inspect. It almost seems like the water is being forced up through the shrouded holes in the front door inner panel. Not sure what those are? Maybe breath holes? Hoping someone has had a similar issue and can help!
