I don't see anything obviously wrong with your input; maybe someone else will
spot something. You can double-check the prmtop you are using, and look to
see if the system is really well equilibrated. Run a second production run
(starting from the end of the first one) to see if the results change.

I do note that you are starting each equilibration with irest=0; I would
always have used the last step of some system that was as close as possible to
the system I wanted. Make sure your pressures and volumes are
well-equilibrated.

....good luck...dac
