How do I test if rads are leaking if I can't see any water drips, the boiler engineer changed the part that looked like it was leaking but said all other parts look dry, how can I check if its the boiler thats the problem or the rads ? Thanks

Last 2 boilers lasting 10 years each was Vaillant. Is it time to change for a another system boiler ?

no loss seen on a motorised valve, both was replaced about a year ago I know that doesn't mean its not faulty but there's no sign of a water leak. If it's the main heat exchanger is it worth replacing as its 10 years old or changing the boiler ? Thanks
