If it is missing then that is likely to be your problem. Don't understand why its only happening now though unless someone has cleaned the trap and forgotten to put it back.

    I cant tell from the image if its there or not. Does the water come up the inside of the tube we can see or is the water level below the bottom edge. It looks as if the water level is below the bottom edge which means there is a piece missing. (">
    I think in all honesty last time I looked at it all and stripped it back to clean it, I must have chucked it! Didn't even think. Ooops (Embarrassed)

    Ah thats brilliant mate, appreciate it. On the basis the inner trap doesn't fit, will it just be a case of removing the wood surround and replace the whole trap? WIll I have to drain anything first?

    If it doesn't fit then just remove the plinth, disconect the waste from the trap and unscrew it. Really easy to do. You don't need to drain anything, but there will be a little bit of water in the existing trap.

    Ok had a chance to try this when I got home from work.

    The small cylindrical peice that was missing from my existing trap didn't seem to fit to well with the existing top drain.



    So I removed the old part & the dried silicone that was underneath it, and thought I'd have a go at putting in the new one.








    This is how it currently sits.



    And this is the current water flow (obviously it ran a lot more freely without the inside trap, so not sure if this type of flow is normal?




    My only questions are:

    1- Have I installed this right with the black rubber washer sitting on top, or should this sit below the shower base somewhere?

    2- The metallic drain which sits on top, rocks slightly as the centre part in the trap sticks up slightly. Is this right?


    I'll upload a video of how it's sitting at the moment.

    That black rubber washer goes underneath m8. Between the trap and the tray. Be careful if u use silicon, as the wrong type can damage your tray. Use Dow Corning. If the silicon u use smells of vinergar then don't use it.

    That's probably why then.

    I'd uploaded the video anyway.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7Dm9dDXcxI

    So with that going underneath I'll have to remove the wood boxing from around the shower in order to pull the trap away from the tray, is that right?

    I do have some silicone sealer, but it's been in the tube the best part of a year, and it's half used, so I'll bin that off.

    Will I pick up Dow Corning from B&Q or anything?

    Yeah m8, I would change the whole trap it the cylinder doesnt fit correctly. Not sure if u can get it from b&q, I'm pretty sure u can get it from screw fix though.

    OK perfect, will give it a go tomorrow in changing the whole trap.

    I might take the boxing off tonight and pic a pic up just to ask you if I'm likely to run into any problems.
