So far we have not experienced any of those things mentioned in your article with our RV toilet, but we do have a bubble that comes up at us when we flush. Everything seems to go downbut it seems like it is trying to get air. I told my husband that maybe the vent pipe had fallen into the tank. He went up on the roof and found the vent pipe even with the top of the roof! He then raised it a couple of inches, drilled a hole across the pipe and inserted something to keep it from falling back into the tank. Is the pipe high enough? I would think the tank was deeper than 2″ and that it should be a little past the top of the tank. We have a 2002 Sunnybrook 5th wheel and the trip the wastewater takes after flushing is not a straight shot. Any suggestions? We had it a t the repair shop thinking the toilet was plugged and they flushed it out with high-pressure water and told us we weren’t using enough water when we flush. The bubble blow-back still happened. HELP!!!

Also, give the entire unit a good cleaning, inside and out before reinstalling to insure their is no oder.
