Quoted from STVPIN:

Autoplunge inconsistency FIX:
I found that the autoplunge mechanism, the actual piece that hits the ball was rubbing on the right side stainless steel rail. You could hear it grinding when manually pushing the solenoid in and out. The problem is the way they mounted the bubble level. Seems like a careless mistake. They let the stainless steel rail slide out into the shooter lane too far and secured it with the bubble level screws in that "pushed out" position, hence the launch mechanism rubbing on it. Remove the level, drill a new screw to hold the rail. Done. Debating how or whether to reinstall the bubble level at all. [quoted image]

did this sort you out?
I can see mine being very close as in your picture. Auto-launcher adjustment is the most challenging part of this game!

Not pretty. But this worked. Had to “bend” the right rail away from the machine. Drilled a new hole and fit the only screw I had to work. Hence why it’s sticking halfway out.
Waxed the playfield and lane. At 90%+ auto launcher
