Hi, i'm having the same problem. I just read your post and tried to remove some water from the top two holes. I put the filter back together and i still see the leak coming out of 3 latches. Is there anything special you did, should i tilt it?.. take it a part perhaps and completely drain of all liquid (the top part i mean). Or will it simply sort itself out at some point?
Thank you,
