I have a Duravit Stark 1 close coupled toilet which has begun to flush poorly. The cistern functions fine, but there seems to be a partial blockage just where the water enters the toilet pan which results in the main stream at the back of the pan being reduced. I have investigated and there...

Many thanks to all who have posted to date and special thanks to "lostinthelight" for his link to schematics - very useful for the inexperienced dismantler! I shall let you know how things progress..

Looks like I cannot access the igniter unit to disconnect any wires without removing the grey plastic housing on my FS38. Is there a specific way to do this as there appear to be several screws on the housing which may or may not be holding it in place and I don't want to remove any more screws...

Ideas gratefully...

Problem solved! Many thanks to all who contributed

Please find attached photo of the TRV in question.

Many thanks for prompt response. I'll get a picture posted when I get back to house.

I am having a heck of a time trying to get the plastic control knob off an older-style Danfoss thermostatic radiator valve in order to gain access to the stuck valve pin. It does not seem to unscrew and there is no (obvious) mechanism to allow removal. I'm sure there is an easy trick to do this...
