Help: Tuning issues with silo special

Help: Tuning issues with silo special

Ive owned this silhouette special for 3/4 years now, love the thing to pieces. However, the last few months its developed tuning issues. I get sharp and flat strings with trem use, even after cleaning and lubricating the nut. Im also struggling to get it in tune across the length of the neck, some chords are great, others sound way out. There is some fret wear on it but not what Id consider excessive. Ive also stripped the bridge and cleaned it, restrung and reset the intonation bit still Im getting issues.
Im going to try stripping the locking tuners down and lubricating them next, lube the nut and the trem posts and new strings. Ive been setting guitars up for years so Im pretty handy but this has got me stumped as to why all of a sudden it’s started playing up.
