Default cistern re-filling noise doesnt stop.

Inside there you will see a rubber flap that the chain pulls up to flush.
Likely this is leaking water through ever so slowly. They do that
sometimes. Get a replacement for this and you ought to be fine. This is
an
easy and cheap fix.

Hi all.

I've noticed recently my toilet has been making a quiet sound of water
refilling, even when full.

After a flush and a full refill of water into the cistern (loud) the unit
makes the sound it does when refilling, but more quietly.

I take the lid off the cistern and the black plastic pump thingy inside
sounds like its passing water or something, just queitly though, I cant

put
my finger on it.

Any ideas anyone?


More likely the fill valve I think. Leaky outlet (flap) valve tends to
cause off-and-on filling noises.
