Hello!
my Mavic is about 4 months old, done 76 flights, 130 km, survived several crushes.
bird always travels with an original gimbal lock protector in a dedicated padded case.

the issue: some time ago I've noticed the camera isn't completely level. it's tilted right to some degree.
those rubber suspensions receive different amount of stress due to a weight distribution,
which makes them to stretch unevenly.
yet it easily could be compensated by adjusting gimbal roll setting or replacing the shock bracket,
it looks like a design flaw.

It seems like even if this were the case that the gimbal motor should easily accommodate for the angle difference though.
 
It's probably the extra weight of your ND filter. Did you try taking it off and checking the droop?
