    No sooner have I fixed a slow drip from the refill underneath the cistern than the diaphragm splits (never a good thing!) so I have to dismantle the whole bleedin' thing to replace it!

    Grrr. All fixed now:)

    I was on the verge of going out & buying a whole new cistern, probably cheaper than all the wrong replacement bits i'd bought.

    A whole new cistern just for a diaphragm?! I took the old one out, used it as a template and cut a new one from a margarine tub lid:) Reduce, reuse, recycle and all that jazz lol
