Customer statement / workshop findings: Unable to remove Accessory valve caps, Figure 1 shows an example of the caps. Technical background: We have observed instances where the caps have been difficult to remove once fitted, the issue is caused by corrosion. The valve stem itself is made from aluminium and the accessory valve caps are chromium plated brass, it is possible under certain environmental conditions, particularly winter road salt, for corrosion to take place between these dissimilar metals. Measure: The solution is to apply a thin smear of silicon-based grease, such as Dow Corning high vacuum grease, to the external threads of the valve stem prior to fitting the accessory valve cap. Grease should be applied any time the cap is removed and grease is not evident

Condition: Customer statement: Noise complaint from the braking system. Workshop findings: The noise can be reproduced and clearly assigned to the braking system. Technical Background Brake noises can be attributed to many causes. Eight of the most common causes are: 1. Brake discs or pads are close to their wear limit. 2. New brake pads and/or discs have not been properly bedded in after installation. 3. Aftermarket pads or discs are installed. 4. There is debris such as small stones, grit, road salt or sand between the brake disc and pad. 5. Discs are covered in rust. Rust can form when the vehicle has been stationary for long periods of time (Figure 1). 6. Discs have a groove in them (Figure 2) 7. There is chemical contamination on the braking surface of the disc due to a wheel or tyre cleaner being sprayed directly onto the disc (Figure 3). 8. There are pad marks on the brake disc as a result of the brake pad material transferring to the discs. This can occur when a vehicle has been stood for long periods of time in a wet or snowy environment (Figure 4).
