Help! Our boiler sits at about 2 bar of pressure. We have had problems with hot water going cold occassionaly, but recently we have to keep re setting the bolier to get anywhere, and today it is making very loud clanging sounds every hour or so. There is no air in radiators, can anyone advise please?

I have the same boiler as yours and it is complete rubbish. Problem after problem. The issue of the boiler needing to be reset all the time was cured by a boiler repair man - he adjusted some hot water sensor, didn't need to replace anything so just the cost of the call out. The best advice I could give you would be to take out boiler cover with someone. It will easily be cheaper than replacing everything every couple of months as I have done over the past couple of years. I could have replaced this boiler several times over for the cost of all the repairs.
