I have a foot pump, so will check it tomorrow when I have more time and a fresh. I have the tap washer to fix too but I'm too hot and bothered now from this weather :) So it's a leak somewhere, the Pressure alve leaking or the expansion vessel that is at fault

He did stick a probe in the flue outlet, but he was there about 40 minutes, did things at the meter, checked things on the boiler, brushed burner/something out inside and checked inside. Then he checked the casing after (round the edge & back) with a lighted pen type thing.

How can I check the expansion vessel? I know what it is. Do I need a gauge? Thanks.

I totally agree/understand. But I didn't have the boiler manual. He did take the case off, check a few things, did something at the gas meter and some match test around the case after. He did a good job though

Thanks, I will do just that. If it does, is it hard to replace ??

Thanks for your help mate. I am just scared I damage the tap/chip it/take the nice gold coating off

A serice of a modern gas boiler doesn't always mean the boiler is dismantled/cleaned, as a lot of new boilers if touched inside/dismantled will break down after. I know this as my boile rwas serviced in April and the guy told me this. He did use a machine to test the flue combustion though.

Thanks for the tip. I am trying it now but the towel seems to sliop and I can't get any grip on the spout!!! Any other tips please? :cry:

Thanks, I will try this now :)

Another quick question while I'm online, it's been annoying for ages now The boiler pressure drops in about a week from 1.5 to about 0.2 and I have to top it ip to get the combi to fire up. What could be the causes of this. I have checked for a ny leaks and all seems ok,also the pressure...

yes got it off!!! freed it with force and a lot of sweat !!!!! But as you mentioned, I am having trouble getting the nut part out of the tap body. I have used an adjustable on it but it's so stiff. ANy tips please would be so helpful :)

Sorry, I have the plastic cap off and the screw removed, but I cannot remove the cover (metal) from the body of the tap to access the nut/washer part!
