Not only the same name but i have the same problem!
a plumber spent half last week cursing and head scratching and driving
into town for parts. It's worse than ever now. New heat exchanger tomorrow.

As was pointed out earlier, many €śplumbers€ť are poorly qualified to do
repairs on boilers. If its a decent make like Vaillant, the manufacturer
will have their own service/repair crews who carry spares etc.

But at a price, I guess? Anyone got experience of them. Currently do my
own maintenance, but one day....
