Usually a sign of a dodgy seal on the high pressure side, maybe but not
necessarily around the trigger. Does it matter? Are there spares kits
available? A seal that leaks under pressure will not necessarily be
obvious as you strip it. Could be a scratch or score in one of the rigid
parts. Are you used to stripping and rebuilding stuff like this? How
much do you like a challenge?

I had a Karcher which developed a leak on the high-pressure side
somewhere near the hose connection on the main unit, with water spraying
out of the vents. I took it apart, but could find nothing wrong. After
reassembly, using the same washers, it worked perfectly, and has
continued to do so, although it is only used as a spare now.

You are right about the challenge, though. Karcher used three different
sizes of screw (Torx headed) to hold the thing together, and six
different sizes of "O" rings!
