Hi
I have now Finished part 3 and have attached the Wheels to the underbody I seem to have a lot of sideways movement on the one of the wheels it appears that the main screw which fixes the wheel to the hub is too long and is stoping before the wheel is tight as anyone else had this problem

Mine was ok but a simple fix is to cut the screw a fraction shorter.
Hold the screw by the end you want to cut off, in a good pair of pliers. Cut the screw with a fine razor saw.

Another way - hold the screw by the head in a pair of pliers and file the screw shorter.

Maybe the locating hole as some paint build up in it?
Try taking the wheel off and either re-tap the hole, or if you have no taps, a dot of washing up liquid and put the screw back with a constant in-out motion until it goes as deep as possible.

Then re-fit the wheel.
