CAT 308E2 boom slow to lower

Anybody seen a CAT 308e2 ( TMX SERIAL # ) Boom slow to lower at times ? When this happens you can pull back on the joystick real quick and then continue lowering the boom, pulled the boom relief valve, didn't see anything out place..

    Does it have boom lowering control valve? Over here all machines have thatand if that is slow to open this happens but you also can see the pump build pressure trying to push the boom down.

    No boom lowering control valve.
