 :wink:  :D

Hence why lately my local main dealer is getting more and more of my business... and some of the stuff is even cheaper than the aftermarket people.

Not saying that this 'is' the problem though....

Are the drifted slightly so will only fit one end?

I'm presuming you have already tried that, you could always warm the necessary part up in boiling water to expand them slightly
