I have a Glow Worm 30cxi combi. It's not the reason I'm worried, but maybe I should be.

The thing that I find worrying is, every time I re-pressurise it, a couple of drops of water drop from inside the boiler as I turn the blue knob off.

Should I be worried?

Funny you should say that. Had it serviced last year, and the engineer called me over to the boiler. He showed me the leaking burner door seal. You could feel the hot gases on your hand, near the bottom of the door. Luckily, as the leak wasn't massive, and it was at the bottom, it wasn't blowing onto anything vital, and nothing else was damaged.

Graphite seal now in place. ;)

Still worried about the drips though.
 
The disconnector is supposed to do that. A couple of drips from the bottom of it when you close the filling tap is normal.
