We have this model in our 2008 Kountry Aire.

The electronic pulsating flush on the toilet sounds almost like a jet plane taking off whenever we push the button for the automatic flush. Well, that may be a bit of an exaggeration, but it is really loud.

Everthing seems to work okay except for the loud noise. Too bad it isn't something musical.

Anybody know whether this is the normal sound for this toilet?

John

When that trap door opens, it is certainly not quiet... Whenever I push that button, all I can say about it is bombs away!

It does make me wonder why that opening mechanism needs to be so noisy.

Thanks for the replies. Guess mine isn't abnormal as I had thought. At least it has a 3 year warranty just in case.
