im on about the pipe at bottom right not the flue

what is the white pipe sticking out the wall is this from the boiler ?

ideal exclusive

A bit of bread is what the old guys used to use

the prv is the first thing to check before suspecting anything else To check if it is going out condense pressure upto 2 turn the two valves off under the boiler leave for a day if possible if pressure drops you know its on the boiler and likely to be the heat exchanger leaking into condense...

does the pressure on gauge rise when boiler is on and do you mean it drips out the little copper pipe that pokes through the wall

What other problems other than The flexible pipe to expansion vessel, on these has a small bore and a tight bend and dont need a lot of muck to block up .

next time you are there disconnect the live red wire in the stat safely so no one can touch it ..... If the boiler still stays on then its an internal fault on the boiler

with clock off and stat turned down can you put a pic up of front of boiler and what its doing. And as per country fan do you just have one stat as in you dont have separate controls upstairs and down stairs or underfloor heating ?

i missed the pic of the combi

it will be a faulty motorised valve then , not the stat

does the heating go off when the clock/programmer is set to off

did you look at the level before draining ? 5 minutes would drop the tank by more than a third

do it for more than a few seconds but a minute /90 seconds should do it

drain some water off and see if you can hear the header tank filling up if you cant you have a blocked cold feed
