one thing you might be able to do that my music teacher has said is to take the sliding peg and drill another hole in it for the string to go through farther from the edge of the pegbox as the original. NOTE: I mean the hole in the peg, NOT THE PEGBOX) Only do this if the string is touching the side of the pegbox as this could be the problem. This used to happen to a violist in my orchestra and he got really frustrated, and this is what he said to do.

How you fix a viola string?

Firstly, bent the tip of the string slightly so that it can "hook" or anchor on the peg. Next, place the end of the string into the bottom hole where the fine-tuners are. Turn the peg clockwise, until the note is reached. Make sure that the string is on the bridge, and in its respective positions.

If you're talking about the peg then that's a problem that affcts a lot of violists. You can go to your local music store and ask for a peg compound. These can be drops that u put around your peg to help it stick better. They shoul come with directions. If they don't then just pull your peg out slightly, put a few drops on, and push the peg back in. They're simple and will help the peg stick. If the problem persists, you may want to have it looke at. a new pe may be needed, but try the drops first.
