    Whistling TRV

    Whilst current trv's are bi directional occasionally you get one that's noisy when closing. I'd be betting it's on return side of rad. Just change it and move on.

    Loctite 55 leaking radiator tail

    Well you have managed to do what ive never seen after many thousand of threaded joints and get a leak with loctite 55! We probably use more cord (don't bother counting) and tighten more . No you can't do any damage nipping it up more.

    Why are there no old school heating engineers?

    I'd Certainly try a chemical flush you can probably do the drain down and refill yourself. If it works cost of power flush saved.

    Why are there no old school heating engineers?

    For anyone with half a idea strait forward. Undoubtedly blocked near pump/open vent cold feed connection. Repipe add decent filter refill add X400 run for 4 weeks drain cold flush if needed . Refill adding inhibitor. Run of the mill stuff but not as well paid as throwing a combi on wall.
