Random 'flushing' of toilet.

Hi there! We had to replace the syphon in the toilet and it now flushes beautifully, but there is a very slight trickle into the toilet pan (hardly visible - you have to watch for very slight rippling in the water). This isn't so much of a problem for us as we're not on a water meter, but a couple of times during the night and also about 3 hours after installing the new syphon, we noticed that the cistern was filling (we assume that's what was happening) because we could hear the water running in the bathroom - possibly the filling or mini-flushing. We have reduced the flow pressure after reading online and that this may be the problem, but that was before we went to bed last night. As I say, this is only happening every 3 or 4 hours but it would be better if it didn't happen at all, as you can probably appreciate. Many thanks in advance, Liz.
