Hi, for some reason now when my Macbook Air gets hot with intensive CPU use the " 1234 TAB QWERT " keys get stiff....so I thought my battery may be swelling and opened it and it was uniform in flatness on the back of the battery after taking it out and inspecting it.

Totally confused as to what the problem is !!
 
I prefer to source parts and fit them if possible thanks.
so if this rings a bell with anyone let me know !

I'd guess something got spilled in there and softens up as the computer gets hot.

Why? They look at it for free.

Also, why would you want to waste money on a guess no one really knows the answer to unless they look at the machine?
