Also, a little tip to everybody who has experienced the grinding.
It can be time-consuming to clean the mess that grinding does.
It is hard to access the grub/socket screw that locks the feeder screw in place to the motor shaft. Basically you need to disassemble the feeder to access it at a straight angle.
What we have done is to just use a power drill to remove some material from the black ring of the plastic housing. Then after aligning the socket/grub screw you can easily access it with the smallest key in UM2 kit or a Torx T6 screwdriver.
See attached pictures:
The last image is from the assembly manual. I added it because it shows clearly that the feeder screw/sleeve should be flush with the top of the motor shaft/axle.

Didier, I did not.
It's an interesting test, however I strongly feel that the new firmware needs to be backward compatible - at least with 14.x. Most people have hundreds of models already sliced in previous versions and I would say this behaviour is far from acceptable.
