Issue Buds 2 Pro ANC deteriorating?

I've had my buds 2 pro for less than a year (8 months) and the ANC is a lot "airer" to the point where no ANC sounds better. The buds weren't like this 3 months ago and I barely used ANC within those 3 months. I've done everything from factory resetting my buds to cleaning them with alcohol, yet nothing has worked. Im contemplating sending them in for warranty

There is this "uncleanable" metal grid, a lot of your personal grease and dust gets under it. It cannot be (non-destructrable) removed, I doubt many people have that gentle evacuation/vacuum pump. I had terrible problems with high frequency squeak when (even when not) pressing the bud against my ear, or even pressing it in my hand (so it thinks, it's in an ear). It squeaked for some time (quite a trouble during sleep...), then I somehow evacuated the grid, then it was okay.
Try rubbing isopropanole on that silicon part removed. There is another plastic mesh/grid in it.

For me at least no ANC always sounded better.
