Bonjour Jacques,
This is most likely an adjustment on the shutter "spool"(?)
I had a similar problem with a used M6 I purchased. A quick trip back to
Vistek (Toronto) with a few sample slides and it was fixed.
I'd suggest sending it back to Kindermann (if it was less then a year since
your CLA they may do it for free) with a few sample of the problem.
good luck,
