iv got a problem with my alpha combi boiler?

the pressure kept going up on my alpha combi boiler, the plumber said it was due to a leaky valve on the filling loop, so he replaced both the ptessure gauge and filling loop, since then the pressures dropped and now all my radiators are either fluctuating all the time between hot and luke warm and 3 of them are cold iv tried to bleed them but no air comes out. please can any one help as the plumber seems to be avoiding us

hi me again, thanks for taking the time to help me. well i actually tried the temperature as high as you said and did all the aothers things as well, it did make it a bit better but then when the heating came on in the morning it was a bit better but still not quite right and its really weird cos the kitchen radiators come on really hot then keep cooling off and my downstairs bedroom one still isnt getting hot so im lost what to do next. thanks sue

temperature so that it don't switch off after 10mins, sometimes a good long blast off it being on can shift a air lock

only bleed when heating off. try running heating full blast to push it through. if not close the hot rads to get the water round to cold ones then when there hot open the cold ones slightly till all rads are even temp
