I will try and help with this problem with your INDESIT IWME127 UK washing machine

If you have water leaking from the front of your washing machine then I suspect this is the result of a damaged door seal, even the smallest of holes the seal can result in leaks.

I would thoroughly inspect the door seal for any splits, holes or signs of bulging,  if any are found then it will need to be replaced. If dirt or grime as built up around the door then it won’t be fully shutting so water will seep through. Watch the video tutorial below to assist you in changing a door seal or rubber gasket

I would also carry out an inspection of the door itself, check for any cracks or holes if you cannot find any then the problem is more than likely the door seal.

I would make sure the seal around the door is regularly cleaned a build up of fluff and hair can also get stuck around the door brackets as well in the seal itself. Door leaks can also happen if the machine isn’t on level ground, or it could be because you’ve added too much detergent.
