The left thumbstick on my friends Xbox One controller has an issue where it carries on moving forwards/backwards when I flick the stick up/down.

 

Does anyone know a quick fix?

i'm guessing the spring in the controller is wearing out.

Will it need to be taken apart?

theres nothing you can do about it really.

 

i have a PS1 controller with a slightly bent spring, and i have to hold the joystick while playing games to avoid infinitely turining left.

Maybe send it to Microsoft for repair/replacement
