The drip in my Moen shower head starts after every shower and continue for a few days and then stops. Other times it drips only for a few hours. What causes this? If the drip was constant I'd try changing the shower cartridge but the last time I did I had trouble pulling it out and don't want to face that task if there's something else I can try.

What is the model Number of your faucet, is it onley shower or tub too, is it a single handle or two? Thanks.

An answer to my problem question (Shower drips periodically) was a response by John Afaroo requesting further details (What is the model Number of your faucet, is it onley shower or tub too, is it a single handle or two? Thanks.)

My response to the above is :
I don't know the model number. It is a shower faucet only with a single knob handle.
I looked in Lowe's and the leaflet that I got there put out by Danco- "Replacement Parts for Most Faucet Manufacturers" shows a single handle cartridge type Moen shower faucet. This is the best info I can provide.

John is taking you down the right road. Not to talk down about Danco but why by their stuff when Moen gives lifetime warranty and replacement parts. Free vs paying, let me think, I'll take free. Warranty Information for Moen Faucets (http://www.moen.com/consumersupport/warranty.cfm)
