Has anyone experienced excesive wear to their levelwinds due to the use of Fireline?

I've been using Fireline for 5 years and I love the stuff: Low stretch, thin diameter and high tensile strength has done me justice. However, I have had 4 levelwind reels go TU in that period of time. Specifically, with wear to the pinion gears. A guide friend of mine suggested it might be the line. I'm curious to know if others have a similar story.
