Worcester 350 combi pressure rising to 3 bar?

Central heating pressure rises to 3 bar (initial pressure = 1 bar) and pressure valve operates. Once cooled, pressure falls below minimum and trips boiler. Is this a fault with the expansion vessel? If it is, can it be repaired or will it need replacing?
