Lumbar support knob came off in my hand (Xsara Picasso 2004)

The knob that adjusts the lumber support, forward left on the driver's seat, has broken. I now have the handwheel knob apart and can see that the white stepped 'washer' is broken in two.

Could someone please advise what I need to do to get everything working again? Is it just to buy a new white stepped 'washer'? I assume that it would be wise to put a bit of grease on the assembly?

common problem and you can get the knob and cable to replace it - citroen only part.
