For some reason I thought you have EQ6.. sorry
However, if mount does not come back to the same position after slewing to and fro... and if it does not have encoders, then steppers are skipping when slewing.
All steppers have reduced torque at higher speeds, and if this is combined with load (friction or imbalance), they will skip, or even stall in worst case.
If possible, try to reduce the slew speed. If the problem disappears, then you will know what the problem was.
In some cases, it may even be a software problem.... but most likely not here, it would have been a common knowledge by now, I am guessing...
