Hi all
I bled a radiator today and had to top up the pressure on my Glowworm 24cxi combi.
After I closed the valves and turned the heating back on there was a slight trickle of water from flow side of the loop. Couldn't see exactly - but not the valve itself, somewhere above it.
Just a few of teaspoons worth. And an hour later, no further signs of leakage.
Happened a few months back after I moved in and bled a different radiator and topped up. There were no leaks afterwards and it had a service shortly after with no problems detected. Stupidly I forgot to ask the engineer about it at the time.

Anyone had this problem before? Should I get someone out to investigate? Boiler is about 10 years old.

Photo attached. Thanks in advance for any help

Flow link inside the boiler is notorious for leaking on them. Particularly when repressurising.

You will need a registered engineer to check this

Cheers
