Me front brake lever wobbles about a bit. Not just play through a bad bleed, but up and down too; it's loose. I can hear it rattling a little as I ride along, although the brake still works fine. Can the lever be tightened up? I don't see anything obvious that'll tighten it.

    Sram Tech say to wind the lever out.

    Annoying if you like your lever closer to the bars with a bad ass bleed but there's no way around it. You could effectively put a spacer/washer in between lever and body but I've never done it personally. Can't remember if I've tried it for a customer but I don't think it worked if I did.

    You can buy a kit to replace the lever bushing
