And whereabouts is your location, We're not as expensive as some people think you know! It is often cheaper to get a pro in once than 3 or 4 failed DIY attempts, flood damage and knackered boiler as a result...

There was no need for that
We're only thinking what would be the safest and quickest method of solving the problem for you no need to throw your toys out
Simple something a beginner diyer could do
Evo-Stik 007 All-in-One Sealant & Adhesive Black 290ml
Remove the trv head and cover the pin and top of the trv body in that
My apologies. I didn't mean to include you actually. Read back up the thread and you'll notice a good portion of bitching and Nuremberg Trials! My response was perfectly justified. And fun!
Right well anyway BINGO. Thanks man. OK so no need to undo the nut or remove the valve. Just this. I hope this simple solution works! It's ÂŁ8.50 on Ebay. This means you're saying that pressure is NOT an issue, right?
If it's just dripping out slightly will be fine if it's spraying out all over the place need a new valve or cap it off
The only guaranteed way is to either replace the valve or cap it off

2 x compression caps will cost a lot less than ÂŁ8.50 and as long as you drain system very easy to fit, anyone with some common sense & a couple of spanners can do it

Op doesn't want to drain or freeze the system
Keep it polite everyone please else I will have to lock the thread and put it in the well of doom!
Thanks for understanding guys!
