I tried calling Moen a couple of times, but their support desk was very busy and the wait time to speak to an agent was over an hour - so I just used the Moen website to explain my problem - which was a slow leak at the base of the faucet - same problem you dealt with in your video. Moen shipped me a new cartridge and new O rings for free. Your video and the Moen guarantee probably saved me at least $200. Thank you.
