The M4-2 (continuous), M4-P and M Winders have a small piece of foam that prevents metal to metal (maybe some composite material in there too) contact between the body of the winder and mechanism that absorbs the shock of the motor stopping at the end of the wind cycle. If your winder emits a sharp metallic clack, startling flora and fauna for miles around, at the end of each wind sequence. The foam needs replacing. Your local Leica agency will, for a small fee, cheerfully restore its form relative quietness. John Collier
