Antti, a couple of thoughts:
• there’s no garbage anywhere on the filter PCB, you’ve cleaned, inspected etc etc?
• have you been through the calibration procedures for the filter ? (around page 47 in the SM you linked) How does it respond? 
• you say there are very specific conditions for the oscillation to start: set those conditions up and examine the VCO and MOD boards as well with your scope. It may seem like it’s the filter board but as you say, unlikely both filter circuits would be faulty…
