The ceiling of my second floor landing has just produced a yellowish stain which I think is coming from a window on the third floor landing. I have looked at the flashing and the tiles and the gulley near this window and can see nothing wrong, will buying a dampmeter help pinpoint the problem? Any advice?

No, you already know there is a problem and a meter won't tell you anything else.

The stain is the result of where the water is getting out, and you need to look for where it is getting in.

There are numerous possibilities of the source of the ingress, so you just have to eliminate the obvious causes.
 
Thanks Woody, guessed that might be the case so will save the meter cost and use it towards a professional
