its a very loud banging noise, the boiler is a worstchester donot know the type, will be calling over on thursday. the primary feed and return pipes going into the cylinder do seem a little wobbly and un-suported.there is also nno insurlation on the pipe work around the cylinder.

banging is usually overheating; if it is open vent, you can bet on crud

thanks for your reply bengasman but what is crud? do you mean **** in the system if so could i flush it out and them but some solution in to help it run?

Yep, that's what he means. Also worth getting some extra clips on any wobbling pipes - can't do it any harm.
