This is another reason I have not taken mine back yet, will they solve one problem but create another two, I just don't get the time to keep going back and forth to the dealers.

I also get puddles in the rear on top of the wheel arches but only after heavy rain.
I have not had time to get it back to the dealers yet, I do ... |

I'm fed up with having to take my wheel spacers off each time I need to nip up a wheel bearing, so I decided to do something about it!
