One thing that I notice is that the shutter speed dial turns more smoothly
and surely when the shutter is cocked than if not. This is not neccessarily
related to the problem that you describe. If your shutter dial isn't
clicking into place as it should when the shutter is cocked then maybe it's
worth sending back to Leica for a look.
