most probale is they had it over preasured at some point and the relief pipe work leaks when under preasure now the preasures back to normal pipework has stopped leakin
bang it up to 2.5 and lift the safty see if leak re apears its going to want changing anywat so best see if the pipes sound first

you can clean the PRV if you want, but will need to drain down before hand. If your re-charging the vessel you will be doing this anyway.
