As I see it in the video the hole is larger then crank snout, it looks like you are rolling it back and forth not just wobbling. Something ain't right.

I am glad that fixed it. I had the large crank bolt come loose on my car after 25k and after re-torquing it I was still getting a wobble. Turned it was the pulley boss and replacing it with a new one and a new key things were fine.

This is the outcome most of us wish for but rarely achieve. Well done
