Plumbing experts: Sustained, high-pitched noise at the turn-off valve of toilet
when water is being used elsewhere in the house. What's the cause, and what's the fix?

Not a plumber but is the valve partially closed? If it is, open it all the way

First thing I thought of, too. It's open.

And if it's open all the way, shut it off just a little bit (1/4 turn).

Tried that, too. No joy.

Not a plumber. COULD have hard water buildup at that valve causing that sound.

That would be my next thought, or even sediment build-up.

I had this with the internal workings of the toilet just this past weekend. I switched the internal parts
