Given this is a 504, it relates to a gateway timeout. Are you sure that traffic is returning by the correct route?

If you lack the logs, the easiest way (if you're able to reproduce the error) is to do a packet capture on your F5. It should tell you if traffic is arriving on your F5 and if it's returning correctly.
