Good to know !
Well, have you already heard similar about similar problems (and their fix) on other film cameras ?
Well, any camera with a phase detect AF system - film or digital - has AF sensors and firmware dedicated to the AF process, and the potential issues are the same. At the time of manufacture, the camera's AF sensor position will be adjusted (if in fact it is adjustable) to be as accurate as possible, then small offsets will be applied in firmware to fine tune the AF. Assuming your camera once worked correctly, I can only think that the AF sensor needs physical adjustment (since the values in firmware are non-adjustable).
The only other thing I can possibly think is that the AF sensor needs cleaning. If you can locate where this is (in the bottom of the mirror box, I'm guessing) use a small flashlight and inspect it to see if it is dirty or has dust / hairs on it. You may find cleaning that sensor does the trick. It's worth a try, at least
