radiator sounds like miss-firing car!!

markovich · 20 Mar 2006

PLEASE HELP!!!!

I was woken up at 6.00am this morning to the sound of a car miss-firing.

It's coming from the radiator in the bathroom where the boiler is too (1st floor converted flat)

It seems to happen a few seconds after the combi boilder fires up and it lasts for about 2 - 3 mins and then settles. 10 mins later, when the boiler starts again it firing sound starts.

Theres about 5 - 15 bangs!!! during this 2 - 3 minute burst but that's enough to keep anyone awake. The bangs vary in intensity...some quiet and some really loud!!

All the radiator seems hot but I could try bleeding it. The other radiators are fine.

Has anyone had a problem like this before??...any advise please

Thanks

Markovich
