I've had similar issues in the past that I believe were were caused by the mirror sticking to one of the cork pads which may cause astigmatism and might also lead to a bit of collimation shift. Last time I noticed the mirror was stuck on the pad I was seeing shift, which was resolved after freeing the mirror from the pad. Thinking I should replace the pads, or the cell entirely, not sure what with though.

Phew, thought I was needing collimation myself
These newts are certainly high maintenance
It's a beauty despite the (very slight) wonkiness!
