You sound as fed up with the modern world as I do.Grundfos nowhere near as good as used to be. But to be brutally honest, what is these days?

There is a drop in quality in most things, no doubt about that.
Since the additional electronics (which reduce the life span, reliability and increase the cost of manufacture, whilst saving relatively rock all in running costs) appeared, most things are unnecessarily over complicated....in my opinion.
A little fed up.
But it goes back to the days when your car wouldn't start and you could lift the bonnet, pop the distributor cap, adjust the points, wipe the condensation off the cap, put it back together and away you went.
Now its into the garage and plugged into the laptop. Takes away skills and to some degree job satisfaction.
That's why I like oil boilers and just listening to it or smelling the flue gas can tell you what's wrong.
Is that the hovis theme tune playing in the background!

The frustrating thing with the error codes is its now an automatic mot fail no matter how trivial. Would love to go back to the old Bedford era vehicles, as impractical as it was, I really miss my TK.
The idea of boilers sending diagnostic info to us is bad enough but if they send them to customers too it's going to be a nightmare and I think it will also encourage more have a go heroes to 'fix' their own boilers. If they are going to go down this route imo the customers should just receive a "you need to call out a gas safe registered engineer" message.
More likely customer gets a message "its fooked, new boiler required, £3,500 total or £50 a month. We can do it tomorrow"
