It was making a rattling noise as the pokey bits on the top made contact with the tire (while turning sharply to the right)
minus-squareBeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 days agoIf you put it back in the position it would be if the screw was tight and rotate it round are there any little holes the pins would locate into? Potentially in the wheel arch liner?
minus-squareZugyuk@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 days agoNo other connection points in the wheel well. It was hanging down away from the attachment point. Checked a wheel arch liner using that parts page linked in this thread, and it doesn’t have anything similar looking 🫠. This thing is driving me nuts
