Hi piffy57, and welcome to the forum. I've got the same 'van as you, and on a number of occasions, the complete jockey-wheel assembly has dropped down whilst travelling, no matter how hard I screwed it up.(Not the inner part, the whole assembly). This may be the reason you asked the question. To overcome it, I bought a half-length of down-pipe in B & Q, cut 9" or so off it, and then cut it down the 9" length. I now "wrap" it around the shaft of the j/w every time I connect up, and have had no more trouble with it. Never thought of it being the pressure-plate, and just assumed that it may have been grease on the shaft, but after thoroughly cleaning it, it continued to fall - until my B & Q solution.
