Toilet Flush Problem

[Theguynaecollogist]

Hi everyone

I`m just new on the site

I`m looking for Help with my toilet. I`m not a Plumber but as I`ve got older I would now try and tackle any problem before calling in the Professional

My Problem is when I flush my toilet, it sounds like the QE2 going up the river
Very loud and I`ve had to turn the water/flush valve back so it doesn`t sound as Loud

I`ve been told it can be air in the pipes
But although I`m not a Plumber I don`t think thats the case
After I took off the Top part of the toilet the part that connects to the Ballcock looks as if its seen better days

Anyone Help or Experienced this Problem with their Toilet?

Many toilets can use standard replacement parts. Korky quietfill valve is one, Fluidmaster 400A is another. If yours can take one of these valves, it's often only a 15-minute repair. If you post a picture of what you have, someone could tell you if a standard valve would fit. The valves are less than $20 at a plumbing store or a big-box place like Lowes or HD.
