I had the same problem and was about to buy a new inlet valve when I found this post. Ordered a replacement washer on ebay for abour £2.50, which arrived a couple of days later and within 10 minutes, job done. Many thanks for saving me a lot of time and money.

Cheers I'll check them out. There are a couple I know of though I think they are isolating valves as as well as the arrow they have a turnable screw. Is there any way to tell if that's the problem without replacing. Anyway got to go to bed now - so I'll follow up tomorrow. Thanks

Oh dear - sounds like a job for the weekend. Thanks for the suggestions. It it unlikely to be the check valve ?

No its an open system. If something were blocked, would water still come out of the bleed valves?

Yes I've also tried that but it made no difference.

I've checked the pins go in and out easily and are not stuck - as I've had problems with TVRs in the past - so I'm sure its not that.

There were TVR's on 2 of them, but I've taken them off and ensured the valves are fully open.

Sorry to repeat this, but I'm still looking for suggestions. 3 out of my 4 top floor radiators refuse to heat up. The one that does work is immediately above the boiler and I suspect may be on a different flow. It is an open system. The radiators will bleed so that water comes out of...

I've tried turning the others off as recommended above but with no joy. Yes I do have TVRs on 2 of the 3 - but I've checked they're not sticking in - in fact I've removed them both so the valve should be fully open. Any other ideas?
