One Radiator Not Working

This is the 4th in the series of the problems in my “new” house.

I have a Baxi 105e combi boiler system. When the central heating turns on, one of the downstairs radiators remains cold. I have tried:

1) Turning all other radiators off and just allowing flow to this radiator
2) Removing the cap on the thermostatic valve and pulling the pin out
3) Tapping all valves with a hammer to remove potential sludge

Is it possible the radiator/valves have become blocked with sludge and is there anyway I can find any more info with out draining the system and taking a look???

Any advice would be appreciated
