Toilet Problem - flush/re-fill

exactly the same problem, fixed by buying the washer from B&Q, less than £2

this is a torbeck valve. there are other makes that look similar.
you can tell a torbeck by the lack of a traditional large ball co ck.

I just fixed the same problem with our B&Q bathroom by replacing the washer.
I opened up the cistern to see the washer I need but B&Q didnt have what I needed in the correct size. I ended up buying the washer on ebay for £2.50 ..... The only other place that I found to supply the washer wanted £17 (delivered) for it!!

Thanks for the tip

Just wanted to update you all on this one. . .

problem was the diaphragm (tiny hole which you could only just see if you held it up against the light and looked hard for!), replacement was £1.35 from local plumbers merchant.

Thanks again for all replies.
