Loose cassette

I get a rat-tat-tat-tat.... sound coming from my drive train. I think that the cassette is loose since it is much worse when I use the smallest two cogs (these are separate from the main body). This first happened a few weeks back and tightening the lockring seem to sort it. However it is now sounding again. I tightened it as much as possible last time - should I get a bigger wrench or use a thread locker?

    If the cassette is loose, try putting a spacer / shim behind the cassette - 1mm or so to stop the lockring thread bottoming-out. Your LBS should be able to furnish you with a lockring.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
