I got the diagnostic codes and I would be grateful if someone can explain what they mean. I'm a diyplumber so would hope i'm handy with tools and am able to transfer my experience to working on cars. The codes i got were Fault 02 Pend 01 P0300 01/03 P0171...

I purchased a Nissan almera from a mate 2 years ago and its been working relatively well, not really had any issues, apart from a faint "vacuum" type noise which I was told by mechanic was the fuel pump. However recently, I've noticed the gear stick vibrates, or moves intermittently when i'm on...

Dear All I'm having a bit of a problem wiring a light in one bedroom. The light was flickering and if i tapped it, it would work ok. However last night it started making a crackling noise so decided to try and fix it. After opening it, i took out the light and neutral wire off the...

hi. I'm making a patio, onto which i will build a brick BBQ. However i'm not sure how to lay the slabs. The slabs are very thick, about 60mm thick, they were piled in the garden when i brought the house, i assume they are some kind of road paving slabs, as the previous owner was a builder. I...

They have called vailant who sent someone out, but the engineer said this was normal. It clearly isnt though. The installer had advised him to call vailant.

lol no the actual valve was faulty, even though it was in closed position, it was still letting water through. This is why I always say never touch anything to do with the boiler/heating. even messing with the filling loop can cause problems.

I'm no expert but went on a job with a boiler engineer a while back and they had the same problem. The pressure would shoot upto to 3bar, then drop down. then fill up to 3, then suddenly drop. It was dumping water out of the overflow/safely valve pipe. Turns out the fault was with the...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lVMHDU8dAY just found this video on youtube, this is very similar to the noise ive described. Looking at the comments below this video, seems a number of people are experiencing the same problem.

Hi, a friend had a Vailant eco tech pro 24 installed about 6 months back. Although its brand new, and was installed by a Gas Safe engineer, the boiler makes an odd "clicking" noise when the hot water tap is opened. When central heating is on, theres no noise. Only on hot water. The noise sounds...

Wow im impressed! That is a superb job, but what about those cuts around corners? U going to use a diamond electric wet cutter? How much would u have charged a paying customer for that job?

oh thats a shame, i was going to offer to fix the problem for £3'000 :lol:

whoa hold on bro, my advice isnt free! i'll send an invoice for £89............................. per word.... :P Nah kidding, your welcome! Can't believe they advised you to start stripping boiler apart :lol:

This should have been discussed and detailed before the tiling was started, once it was clear the walls were not in a good state. The fitter is at fault here, but unfortunately its too late now. The tiling looks like a good job though, looks level and evenly spaced. But the gaps on the bottom...

if you score the paint with a stanley life this should be sufficient and remove many loose paint. as the tiles dont appear to be heavy.

As has been suggested, have you tried turning the stop cock (why is it called such a rude word anyway) to fully open? If water pressure low on hot and cold, this is a possible cause.

The flexi pipe (where it connects onto the isolation valve) will have a rubber washer, you wont need an olive on that end. However the other end of the valve, with the olive, may not fit 100% snug with the old olive, so its probably better to cut the pipe cut below the old olive, remove that bit...
