Possible Faulty PS3 Controller?
Discussion
Bit of an odd one this chaps and I need some help or advice.
What started as an ammusing curiosity has become a fully-blown pain in the arse. The R2 button on my PS3 controller seems to be a getting stuck slightly resulting much unintended knife stabbing during Battlefield games as well as "auto-throttle" in vehicles, sometimes it's getting to the point where you literally cannot play at all.
Here's the odd bit though, it doesn't seem to effecting any other games of mine, which is mainly GT5. Because of this I did intially imagine that it was somehow lag related but the worse it gets, the more I think it's a dodgy buttons.
Anyone had anything similar? Any easy suggestions for repair beyond "blow on it"?
Longer term, how easy it to get just a controller replaced under warranty? Only bought it before Xmas?

mine occasionally does same but seems something is broken inside since it got dropped but 99.9% of the time works fine, i like to think of it as a cruise control feature in bf3 
Cruise control I can live with.
Auto-stab is a pain in the arse when I'm trying to shoot someone 30 feet away.
