Just for giggles, remove your prefilter and test it with an empty housing for a few minutes and see if it improves. Then try it without both the prefilter and carbon for a few minutes, no longer so you don't expose the membrane to too much chlorine. If it improves its definitely the pre and carbon filters.

GOOD CALL on the troubleshooting steps! This was the issue.
I removed all of the cartridges and found out that flow was normal as it should be. I replaced the DI (last one) in and flow was still good. I then put the middle one back in and flow slowed down. I did clean it out and dripping is a couple drops faster, but not normal.
Thanks to the both of the RODI gods for saving me $80-$100 on a membrane.
ONE thing was fixed.. now my other Aqua Medic Oceanrunner 3500 that feeds my skimmer stopped working this weekend. I dont know what it is this weekend, but there is a black cloud over me. I have it in vinegar right now hoping to clean it out good. I didnt see the shaft break so thats a good sign.
