I was reading some previous threads and I have a similar situation. Toilet upstairs gurgles. In addition to that and more concerning, the basement shower will not drain. Some black stuff has come up from the drain in that basement shower drain. Previous threads on this site mentioned venting. Going to try to check roof vents tomorrow, but was wondering if a vent blockage could cause gurgling and a shower drain blockage? Should I snake that basement shower drain?
