problem with kma/k133

I have had problems with one of my kma/k133 mics.
It hyper sensitive to physical tapping, but picked up very little airborne sound. When I tapped the body, the sound was like a metallic ringing sound.
I tried to troubleshoot by swapping bodies around to see if it was the capsule or the body.
Doing this made the problem go away.
Is this simply a bad connection? Should the mic be sent to Neumann for a checkup?
I would love to know if it is the body or the capsule that is the problem as the problem went away before I could be sure.
