Possibly destroyed the yellow bushing (?) while installing the rear shock. What is it called? See photos attached. Canyon Strive CF 2019.

A bushing
Dämpferbuchse.
Canyon calls them Igus bushings because Igus is the manufacturer but they’re generically called flanged sleeve bearings (bearings aren’t required to have rolling elements to be called bearings).

If you don’t want to go through Canyon and/or buy Igus brand, the Igus page has the necessary dimensions to verify whatever you find.
Funny. I just replaced mine yesterday. It’s crazy how tight it fit compared to the old ones.
I pulled one out using my fingernail the other I used a screwdriver.

Then I made this to press them in.
I think this is your part.
What city do you live in?

It’s a top hat bushing or top hat bearing. Bearing is the more correct term, but bushing is used more commonly.
You can get a new rear shock spacer kit that will include the spacer sleeve and new plastics. Typically defined as the bolt diameter x width of the frame opening (I.e. 8 x 35mm)
