Just moved into a new home and found that when the thermostat is off, 2 of the radiators upstairs will not go cold. I have tried bleeding them and now don't know what to do. I have tried turning the radiators completley off. they then go cold but when i turn them back on they go back to warm, even with the thermostat off. any ideas would be appriciated.

system type
motorised valves 3 port, 2 port etc
more info on system
if 2 rads don't go off but the rest do, your best chance is that they are piped up wrong.
If that is the case, you would do well finding a reliable RGI and get him to check out the system and tell you what it needs doing

More information on the system type will help.

More than likely a pipework problem. What will depend on the type of system, age of system etc.
Definitely not a TRV problem.
My moneys on incorrectly piped hot water return connection.
