Pink Triangle Anniversary

Hi!
I have a PT Anniversary, serial no 317, with battery PSU.
It's sounds very good (equipped with a Wheaton TriPlanar Mk VII and a Lyra Titan PU), but unfortunelately I experience some wow-problems. I guess the variation in pitch has a frequency of 2 - 3 Hz.

Has anyone experienced this with the Annie before?

Any idea of if the failure is due to mechanical or electrical failure?
Any suggestions where to start trouble shooting?

I have mailed the Funk Firm without getting any help.
Anyone who knows if circuit diagrams might be available some place (not by FunkFirm, they tell)?
And, BTW, does anybody know:
1: Is the motor DC or AC?
2: Operating voltage?
3: Any feedback from the motor or TT to the electronics?

If the PSU is the problem: Might a PSU from Origin Live be an alternative? I guess I have to replace the motor as well if I choose an OL PSU......??

Has anyone experience with the upgrades now available form theFunkFirm (see below)?
“For Anniversary owners the cost of upgrading is £650, which includes: Motor + K-Drive, Achromat, Vector Drive and machining of the top plate and plinth. If a new top plate in Carbon fibre is required this is £170.00. Replacement bearing assemblies are £190.00 for Pink Triangles or Anniversary.”

Bets regards and thank you on forehand.
