well, I hate to say it, but take it to the shop .. and if the one you've been taking it to can't fix that *same* problem ... then find a different one, it'd be good to find one that has a worker that actually plays oboe to make sure they know more of what they're doing.

gosh thats gonna be bad!
100% alignment problem due to the one or more of the alignment screws at the sides. i cannot tell you which because i don't quite remember.....the alignment screws are extremely difficult to tune and dangerous too.
if the repairmen isn't doing his job then you might as well try another. oboe repair is a hardjob.
good luck!
