Hi again, Mark

New noise?

New shower valve?

Tub and shower valve or just shower valve?

Name brand of valve?

Finally, how is water diverted to the shower head... via a diverter at the valve or via a diverter at the tub spout? If water is diverted to the shower head via the tub spout, is water flowing out the tub spout in excess?

Answer the questions and we'll see what we can come up with, OK?

After you answer Marks questions can you describe the noise for us? Back to you, Tom

Stick it into some CLR it should work.

Some are worse than others. There are moving components inside that make the pulse flow setting do it's thing. Probably won't do it when on a different setting for the spray type.

I'd give Happyjohns solution a try, Remove the shower head and soak it in CRL, Lime Away ot vinegar. Good luck, Tom
