Hi,
I've got a problem with a dual-flush toilet - water in the cistern has started to run into the toilet bowl slowly and constantly. Sometimes a 'small flush' stops it and sometimes it doesn't.
The cistern isn't over-filling, so it's not water running down the overflow that's causing it.
It's only 3 years old - is it likely that anything could be worn out on the flushing mechanism already ? It looks quite complicated - can anything be adjusted to stop this ?
This link looks relevant, although the pic link is dead so I can't tell if it's a similar flush valve : //www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=938773#938773
If it is grit around the flush valve or a worn valve, can this be replaced without removing the cistern from the pan ?
I'd appreciate any pointers before I get started on this one.
Cheers.
