I into my property last July which has a brand new combi boiler. Increasingly frequently, the water pressure drops down to .07 bars (I'm told it should be 2) and then the heating and hot water dont come on when they are supposed to. I watched it drop down when Inturned the washing machine and then it did it again tonight when I turned the dishwasher on. I'm told the water and heating are on separate circuits so can anyone tell me what is going on? Bled all the radiators yesterday but hasn't made any difference.

You have a leak somewhere in your system and need a heating engineer to trace and repair it.
You have a leak somewhere in the system and from your description of events it may be in the heat exchanger.How old and what make is the boiler?
Are the dish washer and washing machine cold fill?
I agree that it's likely to be internal. It would take a hell of a leak to be able to actually watch the pressure drop like that.

Thank you for all your answers. The leak was found in an outside pipe this afternoon and looks as if it's been leaking for a while. I have a man coming out to sort it in the morning. It's a brand new boiler.
