I rebuilt the water valve of my Bosch aquastar 125B, and when I replaced it it is leaking from where it connects the system above it. Right where the set screws hold the valve . Any ideas?

Replace the thermocouple.

Thats the flame sensor.

If the gas valve is not sensing flame it will not stay lit.

T-couple's are about 9 bucks.

SOURCE: Bosch AquaStar 125b ng suddenly goes cold during shower

Does it happen to any other fixture? If not, it's most likely your shower valve and not heater.

SOURCE: i have a 250SX aquastar bosch tankless hot water

The 250 MUST have the condensate line connected. EC comes from gas supply problems and CO2 levels not being adjusted. LP units require 3/4" smooth gas pipe or 1" corrugated pipe minimum size. The LP regulator needs to be turned up to about 13 inches of water column and with all the gas appliances on, measure no less than 11 inches of water column. The CO2 levels must be measured by a qualified gas technician with a calibrated (with in 6 months) CO2 analyzer.

Sounds like hard water. Service the water valve. Parts are available from your local Bosch Service Provider (Contact Bosch if you don't know who the service provider is).

Bosch aquastar 125b

Thermocouple which on that model can be just the Thermocouple or a larger loom with the thermocouple in it depends. Call or look up Houseneeds.com they have parts.
If it was the magnet you wouldn't get any gas to manually light pilot.

Eratic hot water flow

Bosch 1600H NG??? I suppose. If so you need a digital manometer.
Take a static (off) reading then leave it hooked up and start flow. Watch pressure draw down and you should see the heater draw Water Column down below 5" as the pocket of NG in the pipe just before the unit draws down to minimal to keep heater lite. In that case problem in gas line size/gas line run length, Meter pressure.
If you have and maintain in operation 5" WC then is probably the water valve needs rebuilt along with a new diaphgram and also the water filter should be replaced too. This occurs esp after 2-3 year as Bosch specs rebuild at 3 yrs on the Maint Schedule. Also clean all the faucet aerators for good flow above 1.25 GPM Min at all faucets.
Under a single faucet flow (laundry sink) of 2.25 GPM the flame bed of the Unit should be 1"+ high and uniformly Blue.
I assume at this time you either have a Maint problem or you could be overflowing the heater's Winter capacity. This unit @ 70F rise only makes about 2.2 GPM. It's strictly a single use faucet heater at 117,000 BTU.
When you do the Maint look to see if there is corrosion between the GV pushrod and the water valve pushrod. Notice there is a huge mis- match in the 2 rods sizes.These units occasionally (more the 125B) corrode there and the GV will seize on and boil the heater dry and open a seam so you really want to maintain it to Bosch Specs and Schedule.
Note: This is a gas appliance & requires skill and knowledge to service. While Bosch may say you can DIY, I'd readily advise a Bosch approved Service Tech or Plumber do any rebuild. The Digital Manometer alone is a $100-150.00 item and it's the ONLY way to get accurate gas pressure readings.

Bosch aquastar wont get hot

1) If tankless is not showing error code, the problem might be single-handled faucet cartridge:

2) Catch up on maintenance, such as cleaning combustion parts, have gas pressure checked, etc.

Gas tankless water heater turns off during shower

Take the thermocouple out and match it up at any hard wear store. Maybe $10. Replace it .Make sure the flame is clean and hitting the rod in the center center. Ajust (Bend) accordingly.
