due to gravity. On inspection yep, the rear element is flopping about.
It doesn't unscrew or screw up though, so I'm not sure what is loose.
I think I'll break out the little screwdrivers and pull it apart.
Thanks for all your ideas guys, much appreciated.
Cheers,

Excellent !!
Good thinking mate, that's it.
Sometimes the last element (in it's cell) is centred by grab-screws.
Maybe retaining ring (inner side of cell) is loose .
