My S2C also stopped shifting properly after 100 miles or so, again apparently due to 'that' washer. Since this is a known issue to Sturmey Archer it's quite obvious that they have some serious quality control issues going on. It's a shame, because the hub is great fun to use. I wouldn't recommend anyone to buy one until SA resolve this issue. Very, very disappointing.
This should be moved into S2C thread.
