Thump noise on the lead in on warped LPs

Hello friends
I have a Mitchell Tecodeck, with a upgraded Garrot Bros P77 cartridge.
I have moved appartments, which means I can turn up the volume a bit, but not that much!!
I have had a bit of a promble, a lot of my mint LP,s were purchased with shwink plastic, and a lot comes with a slight warp(Which I guess is normal)
I have played all above with no prombles, but now seem to have a "Thump" on the lead in track, when the cartridge,arrive to the top, but when the cartridge drops down from a very slight warp, it makes a Thump??, untill, half way thought 1st track, where it settles down
Hopimg some can help
Regards
David

Dear Friends
Thanks for all the feed back
When I mention that I have moved house, I can have the volume up a bit, thats when I noticed the "thump", om slightey warp LPs, as it has been very hot and humid down here, I have reset VTA etc!!
I was thinking, maybe the cartridge(Garrot Bros new P770 approx 200 hours), before many years ago I was running a Well
Tempered labs clasic,at high volumes, but becaused a long time ago I fogot the MC carridge?
I/m not sure do you all think. may be a promblem with the cartridge(suspension)?
