Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction or had the same experience.
 
	 
 
	After striping my Avalon down today for a service Iv found that one of the tabs has sheared off the quick release spring guide. Luckily this hasn’t fallen into the gearbox causing a complete failure! I’m using a M100 spring so I wouldn’t say it’s under a massive amount of strain. 
	I have tried another V2 QR spring guide (end is 14.8mm diameter)but it doesn’t seat properly in the GB. The diameter of the VFC one is 17.3mm. 
 
	Does anyone know of a better replacement that would fit properly or source a replacement from VFC and hope it doesn’t happen again?
