  1. Thanks for the replies guys. My initial measurement of 3/16" was off. I measured with a caliper and it's just at 1/8" of play. Also, I uploaded a video to youtube for reference. Thanks again! http://youtu.be/8RTj1dpQo8I
  2. Thanks for the reply. I actually did try the bit on the display models, and it had the same amount of play. Even had the same play on the 18v Bosch impact. The combo kit even included some Bosch bits, and they also have the same play. I know I'll be pushing as I drive any screws/bolts, and that should help with the play, I've just never had this issue before. Thanks again. EDIT: Just chatted with someone from Bosch customer service. After explaining the situation, he stated the following: Eugene: I will be more than happy to assist. This is the function of the locking sleeve, it does not hold firm in the locking sleeve. Visitor: Would this be a cause for concern for possible damage/malfunction? Eugene: No cause or concern, this does not affect the tool performance. I finished the conversation by stating I never had this issue with my Dewalt impact, and I wanted to be sure it would function properly.
  3. I recently purchased a combo kit that came with a 12v Bosch PS41 impact driver. I have noticed there is some play in the collet after I insert a bit. Once the bit is inserted and locked, there is some in-and-out play. I can slide the bit about 1/8" in-and-out. The bit is from a Dewalt impact-ready nutdriver set, but I've read reviews where people had the same issue with different branded bits (don't have this issue on my old Dewalt impact, it locks snug with no play). Should this be a cause for concern? It kinda makes the tool feel sloppy, but I think I can get over it if it wouldn't be a cause for possible damage/malfunction. It'd be really nice if I knew there was a bit set that would work without any play, but I don't want to take the chance and purchase anything that would have the same issues as my current bit set. Thanks! EDIT: Originally posted that I had 3/16" of play. I measured and it's 1/8" of play. Also uploaded a video to youtube for reference. http://youtu.be/8RTj1dpQo8I
