One possibility is that the leak is intermittent. (See https://www.pinterest.com/pin/511651207641098768/, relating to a Bosch product.) Even so, however, there should be evidence of the leak. I suggest implementing the warranty to get a free repair, since even if there's no leak there is most likely a problem of some sort.
