Well that's the headlamp main beam bulbs changed, as one was out. Calipers checked as suspected one was sticking, but when taking front wheels off found 3 out of the 5 bolts on each side finger tight!!!!!
Torqued up to 72 ft lbs, will keep an eye on them , and certainly more often in future. Droning noise under heavy braking now gone.

Wow.. That'd do it! Blimey last thing you want is your own wheel overtaking you!

Any recent new tyres or servicing?

You could comment to your passsenger as it went past "Oooh look! - I've got wheels like that" then add "Well 3 any way"
