Thanks! I’ll update the thread when I test it so there is a log for anyone else who may experience this issue.

That’s interesting, thank you, I’ll double check that too.

Extruder gears seem free, but I did just notice that the POM wheels on the x-gantry seem to have flat spots in them. This could be the cause so I’ve bought some new ones to test the theory.

I’ve not had any first layer issues, all have had good extrusion and adhesion. Nothing appears to be touching.

Could be, however. I’ve had the same issues with multiple filaments that I’ve used for over a year, however this has only been happening in the last month.

It has a Bigtreetech SKR mini E3 V3, but stock otherwise.

Yes to everything in the first sentence. It’s not consistent, maybe 1 in three come out perfect, then the others turn out badly.

Normally slopes on my prints look fine, but recently I’ve been getting bad extrusion on some prints but not all. Same materials, same print file. Could this be one of the motors starting to fail? Printed on an ender 3.

Edit: so changing the POM wheels did nothing. However, I did notice while printing the layers weren’t cooling as much as they should before the next layer started. So maybe there could be a fan issue.
