The suggestion above to try to raise the C key is a great idea because that could possibly change the resonance of the lower half of the instrument, affecting the F2. Perhaps some other key heights could be checked by a repair expert who works on and tunes Marigaux instruments.
On my 2006 Loree, I notice the the F2 is a little stronger than the E2 or the F#2, which may be a related phenomena, easily compensated for while playing. Loree may have changed the lower half of the instrument to allow this but not allow a detuned resonance that causes unstable pulling off of the F2 note.
This phenomena is also seen on clarinets where the G3 in the second register is very strong while still being in tune. Again, it is compensated for while playing without even thinking about it.
Good luck on this, but I doubt if reed adjustment can eliminate or seriously help it.
