Hi all
I've had my Eheim 2126 for about 8 years now, and it's always been great. All of a sudden, about 3 months ago, it suddenly became very noisy, sounding similar to when it's got air moving inside it. I stuck with it for about a month, because I was too busy to do anything about it basically, then remembered I've got another new 2126 spare, so thought I'd change the impeller and impeller shaft as I thought it was that. Then, literally the night I brought those home, the filter was silent, back to it's normal self. Stayed that way for about 4/5 weeks, then suddenly, the noise is back. It's driving me bonkers! If it's not the impeller or shaft then I have no idea what it could be. Any ideas?
Thanks
Oh, forgot to say, the noise can dissapear for a time, sometimes a few seconds, sometimes maybe half a minute if I'm lucky, but then it's back again. It's in my bedroom, so driving me insane!
