Our Glow-worm Betacom 30 has started to leak from the diverter valve, the boiler is 7 years old and a replacement valve is £200. So the question is would you replace the diverter valve or replace the boiler?
Boiler repair or replace

Hmmm repair or replace??? repair will be cheaper, but will it be the best option??....No sorry Crystal Ball Malfunction! 
I was sold soon as ya said betacom, replace it!
Seem to be going through a lot cheaper than that one ebay.
Repair it.
Sure it's not sure an O ring or something? Rather than the whole valve.

Been told that rebuild kits are not available for the valve. So its a replace the valve or the whole boiler choice
im gonna guess its the earlier one given the age and the fact that the DV is so expensive. Its a rebranded hermann supermicra and the dv is an absolute s*d to change, easy 2-3hrs for the uninitiated
Well predicted, took nearly 3 hours.....
