Aspire Gotek Pod Leaking? Troubleshooting Guide for Irish Vapers (2025)

The Aspire Gotek range — including the Gotek X and Gotek X II — is one of the most popular refillable pod kits in Ireland. But if you've noticed your pod leaking, you're not alone. In this guide, we'll explain why Gotek pods sometimes leak, how to prevent it, and when to replace them.

1. Why Are Aspire Gotek Pods Leaking?

• Overfilling: Filling past the max line causes pressure, leading to leaks.
• Worn Seals or Plugs: Make sure the silicone fill plug is closed tight after refilling.
• Old Pods: Gotek pods are refillable, but after 5–10 refills they wear down and start leaking.
• Weather Changes: Hot cars or cold pockets can cause the liquid to expand or contract, forcing it out of the pod.

2. How to Stop Gotek Pods from Leaking

• Refill Correctly: Tilt the pod when filling and never overfill. Wipe away any e-liquid before reinserting.
• Keep It Upright: Always store your vape upright to avoid pressure build-up inside the pod.
• Clean the Contacts: A little moisture or e-liquid buildup at the base can interfere with performance — wipe it dry often.
• Replace Old Pods: If it keeps leaking, it’s time for a fresh one.
