A couple of weeks ago our Ferroli Boiler wouldn't go on. An engineer came and said it was the starter switch and put in a new one. Since that time it has started but with a slight rattle which we thought was because the switch had to settle down. Unfortunately the noise has got a lot lot worse. We are unable to get hold of the original engineer and another one we had seemed to think it would cost nearly £200 to put right but we think that maybe it is because the switch hasn't been put in correctly. We don't want to be ripped off and pay this money especially before Xmas if it is just the switch. Has anyone else had this problem?

probably a loose panel or screw missing. the only 2 things likely to cause rattlin are the pump or the fan. if heating & hot water working, then they are unlikely to be at fault, my money would be on a loose or incorrectly fitted panel.
