Zanussi DA6142 Dishwasher won't fill

Will not fill but if I tip the dishwasher forwards, then it WILL fill. When I stand the dishwasher level again it goes dead (stops filling and doesn't do anything else either). An engineer did come and look at it, and said the fill valve was OK so he's not sure what the problem is - do you think I should go ahead and change the valve anyway, or could it be something different? Will very much appreciate any help. Many thanks,

    Hi there, I'd advise checking the drainage system - it could be that there's a blockage there. The drainage system is situated in the base of the dishwasher; remove the lower basket - you should then see the drain sieve and drain filter.
