Mend Vaillant GB 242/2 Gas Valve Started

Vaillant 242/2 Gas Valve noise?

My Vaillant GB 242/2 has just started making a noise when it attempts to strick. System runs up and even makes hot water but the boiler is now making a loud buzz sound at the point of attempting and sucseeding to fire. Does any one know which part needs replacing, the gas valve complete or just the solenoid?
