Had a new back wheel about a month ago , well halfords lost a 50 p washer on the freehub i took in to be tightened and they had to give me a new wheel;).

Anyway said wheel is for more gears so i had to put a spacer in it , seems the spacer has compressed so there is a lot of play and i need to dismantle the gears and put another one in , the screw that holds it on should not have come loose as i thought they were self tightening?

AHHH the joy of sunday covered in grease and wielding a chain whip :smile:
 
The lockring can work loose if it has not been tightened sufficiently in the first place.

Probably just needs taking apart,cleaning and then making sure that the lockring is tightened using the proper tool.
