There is a well known hack to fix the 360 controller d-pads by sanding the plastic edges of the case to be 50% thinner, and installing a spacer (a donut shape cut from a semitransparent plastic 'Pringles' can lid or something similar) below the plastic button piece but above the rubber contact piece. From what I heard (having never done it myself) it improves the d-pad response pretty dramatically.
