There should be a rubber ring in filter/salt housings shouldn't there? Take it out, and inspect it for any cracks etc. Tape is an option, but like you said a bit of a pain.

Haha, sorry that made me laugh, silly things aren't they those rubber rings, they end up everywhere.

I'm not sure if I understood your last post, but try some fairy liquid around the ring, that might help popping it in.
