Abs to PVC glue sold at home depot Color it aqua blue/green plumbers key term. GUMBY GLUE Depends upon what you mean by "black pipe". If you mean ABS drain pipe, there is glue for that.

Which is better and will last longer when replacing main sewer drain lines - cast iron pipes or 4 PVC pipes if the plumber gave you a 3-year warranty on the cast iron and a 1-year on the PVC?
I can't imagine the plumber only giving 1 year on the PVC. Cast iron is rough on the inside and those rought spots can snag paper, lint, etc, eventually leading to blockage. PVC should last much longer and be less susceptible to blockages from material getting caught on the inside wall of the pipes. Also, PVC doesn't rust, while cast iron will. All-in-all, I'd have to vote for the PVC (make sure that it is at least Schedule 40 PVC).

What could a dribbling noise be that you hear from the main floor ceiling after flushing the toilet or during the shower if there is no sign of water leakage under the toilet or shower?
If the toilet and shower are in an upper floor then there is a PVC drain for both that will drain to either the sewer or septic. If there is a vertical piece to this, as there is in my basement, then you actually get some dribbling and running sounds from the water 'falling' down that vertical PVC. I get this same noise from the washing machine on the main floor draining down to the basement.
