Then just do the mod and call it a day. Don't need a while new controller. Just pop the top off and pull out the plastic ring that is broken and put the top back on. It just 2 sided tape. There's a thread on that here somewhere. I need to do it myself as my second controller has now broke at 60k miles and I can feel the binding again
