Slow Water Output from Filtered Water

Have had this fridge for about 4 years. Water flow was fine initially. Then we noticed that the water would slow down from time to time. Seemed like it got more and more frequent... we initially thought that it meant that the water filter needed replaced. Replacing it did seem to fix the issues for the first couple years, roughly every 6-9 mos. Lately the water flow is much slower 99% of the time - even with a new filter (Part #4396395). In the morning after not being used for awhile the water flow is normal (good) for about 2-3 seconds, then it slows down. If I take the filter out and shake it and put it back in the flow is normal for a little bit but then slows down again.

I do believe that the pressure is good coming in, otherwise I don't think we'd see the normal flow at all.

Possibly related, when I take the filter out to change it, I noticed that there is a small drip coming out of where the unfiltered water enters the filter. When the filter is connected, no water leaks out.

Thanks!
