Right i have posted on here i think my HG has gone but i cant see how it has as the HG is the thick steel type which is new.No water in oil sniff test ok b ut got high pressure in top and bottom hoses.
Also ive noticed today while tinkering with it that i can hear well best way to describe it is "like a kettle boiling" noise coming from my filter? what the heck is that all about?

As for the HG issue what are your thought just want to be 100% sure that it is gone before i strip my beloved scoob.

cheers

Depends on your symptoms. I assume you have invetigated the other possibilities?

Try bleeding the system before you strip it. The noise you hear could be an air lock.

If i was you, i would drain the system and then refill as per the methord found on here. Do a search for "air lock" (include the quote marks in the search field). There are a few threads with the best way to refill.
