bloody boils my you know what when people do a half arsed attempt.... do people not check their work thoroughly???
bloody tyre fitters, collected the wheels late Friday and went to put them on, all good.... drove a couple of miles to ensure all was good, all good.
Reversing back into my drive as normal, had a sound at very slow speed like a metal pea being rattled in an aluminium can.... Wheels up, and rotated all of them, NSF was were the "tinkle" lived..... first thoughts were WTF have I done, what's catching.... nothing came the reply in my head, took the wheel off and rolled it about, yup definite "tinkle".... going away early the next morning meant it had to wait until today.....
Wheel off, into the tyre bay... watching them like a hawk so they didn't damage the newly PPC'd wheel..... tyre off and an old bloody wheel weight was rattling around the inside of the tyre.....
Tyre back on and onto the balancing machine, I questioned how they were going to remove the sticky residue from the "old" balancing weight... "We have just the tool for that sir", off he went and bounced back with a wire brush.....
WTF are you going to use that on came my abrupt question..... As if that even touches my wheel you'd need it surgically removing...…
His face was a picture..... Needless to say a small amount of brake cleaner and a quick rub with tissue was all it needed (I did it myself rather than risk the ""fitter"" doing it) and no wire brushes were harmed in the sorting of my tinkle.....
