    Engineers report; All ok - replaced right hand hinge . ( I think that's what the writing says ):

    Thank you for that, at least it's not just me that's had this issue!
    Should the new pump on Thursday not resolve this issue, I will mention this to the enigneer!

    Edit - Had a google and the right hand hinge does indeed seem to be a part!

    Glad you got it sorted.
  • Just to update incase anyone finds this when searching on Google or such like  - the banging is back!
    British Gas just re-attended and ordered a new bypass valve to fit tomorrow.
    I did mention about the poster on here that had a similar issue with the right hinge, but that was kind of discounted by the engineer.
    Fingers crossed for tomorrow!

    Hope it gets sorted.

    This boiler is going to end up like Trigger's brush!
    Sorry I can't think of anything profound, clever or witty to write here.

    :D can't complain about the amount of new parts i'm getting fitted, however would prefer the banging to stop!
  • Sounds like a similar noise I had with my WB boiler. We used to be with BG but dumped them after price increase & no negotiation.

    Anyway our problem was a blocked condensate pipe. Engineer from local firm took it off & cleaned it problem solved.

    Interesting. I suppose that is another downside with an aluminium alloy heat exchanger — presumably it was gunked up with ally corrosion products?  Wouldnt get that with stainless steel . .

    Good that you got it identified and fixed
