I recently got a new (2nd hand) bottle, I moved the bottle today and it made a rattle, I thought that was odd, and I pin pointed what it was, it was the fill nipple, the silver "disk" thing that sits inside the nipple has dropped, and moves freely, will this cause leaks? or will it be fine?
Will try to get pics in a second

Its fine, mine does it occaisionally, it's because there is no pressure to keep the piston at the top of teh nipple, making a seal, when you put some air in it will force the piston to the top allowing the o-ring at the bottom to seal the nipple.

In short it's fine, don't worry
