I’ve got a vantage concealed cistern that had an intermittent problem a couple of years ago whereby the flush wouldn’t shut off and it continuously overflowed into the bowl. As it was a new build I had the builder send a plumber round to resolve the issue.
That worked until recently when it started again.
Assuming it was just the washer I ordered a replacement and unscrewed the flush from the base. I did think when I took it off that it came off rather easily and when I came to refit it I discovered both the securing clips at the base have broken off.
Can I replace the bottom clip assembly or, as it’s one of those cisterns that are preassembled by TD do I have to replace the whole unit?
it looks like the base might be a press (or screw) fit but as it’s such limited access I don’t want to compound my problems by forcing something.
I did find a Vantage 2 push fit basket on toiletspares.co.uk but again don’t really know if this is the right part.

Im happy to get a plumber in if that’s the general consensus but I thought maybe I could do it if it’s an easy fix.
