Jess,
Check that the thermostat is opening fully and isn't sticking, then I'd
suspect the radiator. Just because it's been flushed and doesn't leak, it
could still be half plugged.
I don't have your name in the Hundred Registry. Can you please send me all
your BN1 numbers, etc. for the Hundred Registry?
Thanks
