I had a potential leak in the island kitchen drain, but it's no longer an issue after using an auger through the clean-out pipe. The water seemed to be coming out from the base of the pipe.
I've removed a section of drywall for inspection purposes. After filling both sinks with water and activating the garbage disposal, I observed a slow drainage. Around 30 seconds later, water began to emerge from the base of the pipe, forming a small pool in the drywall before eventually spilling over. Identifying the specific pipe responsible is challenging since the drain and vent pipes are in close proximity. Notably, I observed bubbles emanating from the vent side of the pipe during one instance, and subsequently, the small pool of water gradually subsided. Additionally, I observed a small hole in the vent pipe, but there are no apparent signs of water emanating from it. Any idea where the leak might be?
