A problem has developed recently with our Quest 2, where it randomly teleports me. It appears as if the right thumbstick is the issue; as if it is arbitrarily being pressed in. I've searched forums and have seen similar issues for other users (but more usually "drift").
I've tried suggestions such as clearing the guardian history but no improvement. I've also tried blowing around the thumbstick while rotating it, but this also has not improved matters. I think I am going to have to try a more thorough cleaning; perhaps prising the cover off and squirting contact cleaner in as well as I can. Does anyone have a better suggestion before I take sharp knife to it?
Compressed air can be used to remove debris inside the controller
Remove unsupported third-party accessories that may affect thumbstick motion or controller detection. For example, controller covers, controller attachments, etc.
Remove the battery from the controller for 30 seconds. Try a new battery.

A thorough clean appears to have sorted it thanks. I bought a can of compressed air but I think just blowing hard myself seemed to sort it. Thanks for he help.
