I've used every R lens Leica makes (except the 800) and have NEVER experienced such inconsistancies. One time I had this experience. My son dripped frozen yougert on my 135mm R lens and made focussing very stiff and actually completely locked-up the f/stop ring. It obviously went in for a CLA. There is something wrong with your 28mm R lens. You should have either never accepted it in the first place or should get it fixed. Jim
