Steinar,
               ahhhhhh  great :)    thats ok  ya had us all worried there 
for a while   ;)

   from your photo it looked like a wooden floor,   hence the comments from 
Gary
and myself.   not sure what else to suggest.....  But I bet its still most 
likely a
foundation movement problem.   any chances of a couple of sharp closeup 
photo's
of the pivot ?   thats maybe one of the few other things that could be 
causing a
problem.

It would be good to see an english version of your www pages some time for a
better understanding of your system  :)
