No.

1000 mile service just completed - everything settling down nicely - slight oil weep from timing cover found to be from camshafts and being monitored, MMC aware - the same grease throw out Ken found but only from one wheel bearing seal, suspect over-packing so one off - otherwise no issues.

Oh wait a minute - hazard warning lights came on the other day uncommanded - cure was to turn switch on then off - happened only once before in 1200 miles.

One off as in once all the excess grease has been thrown out there won't be any more. So yes not an ongoing issue.

Check out Ken's similar issue on thread here

Unfortunately not yet as still unavailable. 1000 mile service earlier this week would have been ideal time but for further production delays. Promised in a few weeks and we will get a more rugged version due to last minute improvements I'm told.
