How many years / miles do you have on it?
I'm the second owner of my Alfine; I've had mine for 2 years & ~4000 km. The owner before me had it for about the same. After ~8000km the shifter is fine. However, the roller clutch went on the hub. Shimano rebuilt / replaced it for free, kudos on them because I'm not the original owner. Shimano said that is so rare that anything would go wrong with the hub that it must've been a manufacturing defect.
