I contacted Kohler. Same exact issue. I removed gasket and there was a slight bubble in the gasket. I took photos and sent them to Kohler. They sent me replacement gaskets. No problems since new gasket in (1.5 years). Initial one lasted 6 months. Super easy to troubleshoot and replace.I have 3 toilets. They gave me several.
