Are they talking about the wheel nuts being tight due to alloy corrosion? ( As the wheel has not been removed in the pics )

Re: Leisure battery not charging

Re: Fuel leak after pump recon

Request a refund for the unnecessary pump overhaul - bloody garages. Computer reader rather than mechanic more than likely.
