My toilet, a few times a day starts running water for a few seconds then stops. How do I fix it?

Oh I want to know the answer to this as well. Sometimes my toilet will flush itself while I'm having a shower, and if I'm not paying attention I get cooked.

That's entirely different, call a plumber. Op's is just a slow leak.

[–] Toes@ani.social 4 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Oh darn, but the slow leak kinda makes sense? What do you think is the cause?

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Slow leak makes sense if it's filling the tank for a couple seconds. It doesn't make sense if yours is full flushing. Don't know what would cause that.

Ghosts need to poop, too

The toilet flushes because the bowl is filling up. That's what causes it to flush. Why the bowl is filling up when you shower... I have no idea. Sounds bad though.
