Leak on feed side of radiator on a pressurized combi system?

I have a small leak from the valve joint on the feed side of a radiator, so the system which has halstead combi boiler is losing pressure. Do you have to drain the system? and if so whats the procedure? Thanks

drain the system from a radiator with a drain tap fix the valve repressure the system use the filling loop on the boiler to about 1.5 bar bleed the rads not letting the pressure go below 1.0 bar.
