My toilet makes a high pitched noise after being flushed. I don't have the ballcock type valve, and there is no vibration, only noise that stops after the toilet has filled.

Unless you have an electric toilet I'm going to agree with Stan. Your fill valve has a washer/seal that closes once the water reaches the predeterimed level. That washer is vibrating as the water passes through it. If you can determine brand and model we can help you repair it or you can replace it with a Fluidmaster 400A for about $10

UOTE=;][/QUOTE] As stated your noise is caused by vibration. Which ballcock do you have? Door number one or door number two? ( see image)

OK that's the Fluidmaster 400A I mentioned earlier. This should help if you want to repair YouTube - ‪Fluidmaster 400AK Complete Repair Kit Video‬‏ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6J0QRBBmvw)
