    I recently started noticing that when I flush my toilet and the bowl is emptying that I get a gurgling noise from my tub. What would cause this and is it a problem or going to cause me problems in the future?

    Thanks, Rick

    A partial plugged drain can cause that symptom.

    To answer your other questions , it could plug up completely

    The other cause could be a blocked vent (highly unlikely), or no vent at all
