So I had been tightening the soft aluminium bolt because I'd read you should only tighten the NDS, which was the complete opposite of what I should have been doing.

Anyway - swapped it round and used loctite blue to try to keep it from moving. Been largely hiding from the weather since then so not 100% sure it's going to solve the problem.
