I had the same kind of problem.  A customer, whose OM-4 I had just
overhauled, called to say that the OM-4 meter was off by 1 stop, compared to
his brand new 4T AND his 3 friends cameras too!  Woah, I said, how can that
be?
This chap wanted to come to my shop with all his friends so they could prove
it.  Well.... NO that  won't happen.
SO, he took the 4 and  brand new 4T to Olympus in Woodbury, they took both
into the service area and found that the new 4T  meter was off 1 stop.
