I just roughly tightened up the AZ pivot bolt (it was loose indeed), re-performed the daytime encoder test and it's MUCH better than before. I wasn't too pedantic about it falling within one count, but it was generally -10/+10 steps with a quick rough look at the object in centre fov.
If the skies are clear tonight i'll give it another try, hopefully with some positive results
