HOT water is getting too hot?

thanks tom for the info. The strange think its only the upstairs but this is more than likely the gravity freed as you stated. I will give a thump and see if this resolves.

Old systems worked on gravity hot water circulation and a pump on the heating.Usually if your radiators are getting hot and never did before it means one of two things.Either there is a non-return valve on the heating flow pipe from the boiler stuck open(can e freed with a thump if you can find it)...or the bad news ,there is a pipe fitted in the boiler which keeps the heating/hot water split(spreader tube).If this has gone its a new boiler or a controls upgrade.
As for the Hot water temp the only control you have is the boiler thermostat on the front of the boiler.Is this turned as low as possible?
