Peco OO curved point frog problem

Our Hero has a problem with a Peco cur4ved point, which I believe is 2nd hand.Several items passing through on the inner curve tend to derail, not every time, but there is a distict jolt.No he does not have a back to back gauge, but the problem only occurs on Peco curved points (of which he has three) and does not seem to occur on a (new) Hornby curved point (of which he has one but it curves the wrong way for this job).Googling suggests the solution is to add a shim of 10 thou to the inside of the check rail.Is this an issue with Peco curved points or would a new point solve the problem?I can post him a new point, I'd have to go over to add the shim.RegardsMike
