Rega Drive Pulley Issue


I bought my Rega P5 in January of this year and recently purchased the optional power supply (TT PSU). The table sounds great although I just noticed that the main drive pulley has a slight wobble. I can not hear any wow or flutter from the wobble. So, my question is do any of you that own a Rega table notice any wobble from your drive pulley. Is this normal, or a defect? If this is a defect, should they replace the table, or replace the whole motor assembly? I am a vinyl newbie, so any advice on this matter would be appreciated.

Thanks for you input!!

I called REGA(Sound Organization) today, and the rep I spoke to said that the wobble was not normal. Although, the rep asked if I could here any effects of the wobble when playing a record. He then said that it must not be bad enough to cause a problem and not to really worry about it. I then told him that I just spent over $300 bucks on the TTPSU and asked him why should I have bothered buying the power supply to help vibration if the pulley is wobbling. The rep then told me to take my table to my dealer and have them look at the table. If the pulley is in fact wobbling they would most likely send my dealer a new motor and pulley unit.

I will call me dealer tomorrow and see what they are going to do for me. I believe they ordered a new P5 the same time I received my table. I will look at the pulleys on the dealers tables and see if they have the wobble issue as well.

I will update you all after going to my local dealer! Thanks for the input!
My dealer contacted Rega about the wobble in my drive pulley, and Rega agreed to replace the whole motor and pulley unit! They said there should not be any wobble in the pulley! Although, I looked at the stores demo table and could see a slight amount of wobble, but not nearly as bad as my table! Hopefully, the new motor and pulley will be wobble free!
Got my table back a few days ago with the new motor & pulley, and all is well! I wouldn't say the pulley is 100% perfect, but it is 95% better than it was. You have to look really hard to see the slightest imperfection.
The folks at Sound Organization have always been more than helpful to me when I have had questions/problems. They even invited me to visit their location Dallas when I visit family in the Big D. They even follow up on a timely basis to be sure I am completely happy.
