I had the same one, it came with a vanity w.c. The Bellows behind the button stopped working, so took them apart and greased them up and all was fine for about a week.
Then they stopped working again, the valve passed slightly too and it was only a few months old, so my advice would be to change it for another brand and don't try to replace like for like as in my case it was a terrible valve.

hello JCplumb


did you check the bellows properly sometimes you have a little tiny cut in there which will cause this issue you had. Instead of greasing them up Id change the bellows. I had it few weeks ago same valve but so far all good.

Howdy Matchless,
I checked the bellows and did get them working perfectly for a week or so by greasing them up they were really badly made in my opinion, but this is my loo so swapped for a Fluidmaster for a nice trouble free 10 years or so.
The valve didn't always sit well in the seat and would pass most of the time even though it was practically new so wasn't going to mess about.
Where do you get your bellows from? Could come in handy at some point if the valve is decent and just the bellows are needed.
