The groove mount is moving inside the filament drive housing. Has anyone had this problem?

Your mount may have a crack. See if you can find the crack, repair it with epoxy temporarily, and print a new one in ABS. You may be interested in this one: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=674&start=16

Thanks for your response, but no im not seeing any cracks. Yes I may need to print out a new filament drive as to mine is not holding the barrel tight. Can I use any epoxy?

I used small metric equivalent of fender washers with 3mm screws into nuts in the nut traps in the filament drive. I don't see a downside to this. Am I missing something?
