This problem has been going on for a while - one I can't seem to eradicate. After running the water for a short while, hot or cold, the gurgle comes up the drain, no water just sound.
This doesn't happen with the bathroom sink or tub.
There doesn't appear to be a blockage because the water drains very good.

Any ideas to solve this problem: note' I've been told to climb onto the roof and clear the stack because there might be a blockage in it. Impossible for me to attempt this.
 
How are your basement fixtures working
Fixtures: washing machine drains good. I was considering removing main drain cap and then running hose water for a good while. But first flr apt tub, washer,2 sinks and toilet which are all connected into main drain all work fine.

The drain has a partial obstruction or you’re overwhelming the drains max capacity with incoming flow.

It could be nothing, or it could be resolved with a plunger and or drain cable
