The one that I had was the access panel under the sink not latching in place. Everything worked but that panel stayed partially open. That particular airplane had a mid-lav so at least the inconvenience was minor for the FC passengers.

I used the lav pre-pushback. Everything seemed in good order, but then, I'm not a lav mechanic.

Mid-flight, I used the lav at the front of the economy cabin. Boy, that thing is claustrophobic!!
