it can be the water pressure too low or the pressure switch inside needs setting corrctly, run the water low and adjust till flame is a nice blue colour

probably the air pressure s/w ventury needs cleaning but also possibly a scaled up secondry heat exchanger

I have this problem too, I was told from a specialist that I need to have shower taps special for combi boiler; the problem is with the taps not the boiler itself. I have not tried this yet.

Try bleeding your radiators. I had a similar problem and bled the radiators, then realised one was leaking - problem solved.
