If you feel comfortable enough:

1. Check the bore by holding the reed well to the light. Look straight down the bore from the tenon and make sure the bore is still straight and not warped (i.e. curved to one direction or another)
2. Hold the side C bridge down, put a rubber stopper in the bottom tenon and check the suction. If the suction is perfect, then it probably is the bore.
3. Check and make sure there is a small amount of space in between the D trill bridge and the bottom joint D trill key, so that its not being held open.
4. If it doesn't seal, take off all all of the keys, and put small rubber stoppers in every tonehole while plugging the octave keys with your fingers. Then start adding pads/keys back one at a time until you've identified which pad is failing.

That's my best suggestion.
