Yes sir, upon further investigation, that's exactly what happened,
Found a tiny sliver of alum jabbing it up.
The front alum planet was a little chewed up, sending little pieces through out.
I was hoping I wouldn't need to replace my TQ, but now I'm too scared to put back in the old one.

Yeah. Those automagic things are kind of finicky about metal shards flowing around. I'm sure there could be some lingering in the TC that will give you problems down the road. A full disassemble/cleaning with a new TC would be in order. Or maybe just go get a rebuild or a good used unit.
