 I had this problem on my car, the circlip was worn (lost its tension) and allowed the sprocket to walk back and contact the housing. You just need to remove the sprocket (with a gear puller), refit a new circlip to the shaft and put the sprocket back on. It's an easy fix. I'd replace the shaft key as well while you're at it.
