 Boiler Woes - James Loveless
Recently I had to deal with a very similar scenario to the OP. I replaced an old condensing boiler with a new Vaillant (long guarantee) and updated the system to direct pressure, removing the tank in the loft. New pump, system flushed.

There were problems with airlocks - no doubt the fault of poor design when the house was built.

The job took about a day and a half. Cost around four and a half grand.
