Remove the section, give it a clean, apply dry PTFE spray and reinsert. Should do the trick.

I would try changing the delrin shim & maybe the spring. It may be the top inch has worn too much even for the shim to take up the slack if I'm understanding you correctly.

A smear of epoxy two part glue on the top inch can sort it.
