Hi Aiden,
There is also another thing that may be in play here if you are using EQMOD.
This was a drift issue that was only ment to be a problem with earlier version of the EQ6 mount but I have been plagued with it and my mount is a later only two years old mount. My symtoms were the same as you describe and I'm guessing the drift was mount slow, images drifting up when in the East or down when imaging in the west.
EQMOD went to the trouble of putting a drift compensation adjustment into their software, you will find it in the bottom right hand corner of the expanded setup window.
The recommendation was to set it at +3 for the older mounts and that seems to work to improve things for me so until you go off axis guiding try this setting and see if it helps.
Nico.
