Whats wrong with it? Cant it be repaired cheaper than replaced?


Sadly not, it's had over £1,500 of parts over the past year (£400 last week)
all at BG's expense, and now has a shot wiring loom, multiple water leaks,
and more. Time to give up methinks!


WTF have BG been doing to it??!!

Have to say, it is prolly a case of IFF (It's F-ing French!) very few
people except SD and SD trained engineers seem to be able to work on
these without causing leaks.

I kind of like repairing SD boilers. They come apart so easily,all
those nice easy clips and o-rings. I used to find that a two tube pack
of araldite was essential equipment for my toolbox becuase you would
sometimes find that a plastic complonent would develop a pinhole. A
quick drain and blob with araldite did the trick.
