Yes. It is listed on Bosch's US 'Discontinued Boilers' page and in the discontinued Buderus products documentation library, and it is not in the current Canadian catalog.
The manual prints both: ignition heat load is the burner input at ignition (160 to 266 MBTU/hr), while nominal output is the boiler's rated heat output (130 to 219 MBTU/hr). Boilers.ca keeps the two rows distinct.
The Buderus G124X/G234X/G334X brochure prints 84.3% for the 38, 84.1% for the 45, 84.8% for the 55 and 84.3% for the 64. The installation manual itself prints no AFUE row.
