No Hot Water Upstairs

[jeb]

HI
just moved into house which has a saunia duval 623 combi. When you initially turn upstairs hot water taps on ( bath or basin ) it runs hot for a few seconds then goes down to slightly warm. ground floor kitchen sink tap runs hot as required. any ideas please?

Same problem on SD F24E Please help!! I can get some hot water upstairs if i turn the tap on very slowly but this only works for a short time while the tap downstairs stil provides hot water. the boiler is situated downstairs. Is this the water flow sensor??????

Totally different boiler with about 15+ years difference between dates of manufacture. It's roughly equivalent to comparing a VCR with a DVD
