Loch side.
If anyone's interested, I managed to fix this problem. I have to admit it didn't involve much in the way of technical troubleshooting - instead I invested £24 in an Ultegra FD. Works perfectly. Haven't had any issues on two fairly long rides now, and the shifts are smooth as butter, even compared to the smoothest I was getting on the Apex FD. Having had a search around on this issue I found that a lot of Sram users seemed to have issues with the FD that were hard to resolve, even on Rival/Force/Red.
Glad you got sorted. There is something to be said for Shimano quality. Enjoy your smooth shifting.
