Did you replace the rubber seal which prevents water entering the bearings. The metal fragments may have been the remains of a circlip which held the inner bearing in place. Without it the bearing will jump out of its recess. Black spots are probably the rubber seal breaking up. cut and paste the following address into your browser for more info. www.2ndwave.co.uk/manual.html
