You might try capturing the HTTP communication from the client using a browser plugin like HttpFox for FF or Fiddler for IE. To capture all the traffic you could use tcpdump on LTM and/or Wireshark on the client and/or server. You could compare the successful session of a client connecting directly to the server with the client connecting via LTM. If you want help capturing or interpreting the traces, you could open a case with F5 Support.
