Did you drain the system to fit the new valve? Maybe air or it's not circulating around the system! Does when it comes on get hot then shut the stat done on the boiler? If not the above do not work on the unit get a rgi in as these boilers can kill if messed with by a diyer

If it hasn't moved then it must be from install if it's running away then it may be the molding of the try but still soul of be at point of install. Mira are good products as a rule but can give them a call for advice.

Could be but those panels are usually ply so don't as a rule expand, unless other material photo would be good, more likely the try dropping pop the panel off the front get a level and jack the legs up.
