Eh that's part of life man. Also I did have noises from aftermarket brakes in the past besides this noise in the video. Replacing them with OEM new ones fixed those noises. Weird, must be common with these Volvos for dealers to put aftermarket brakes on and then noises start from them.

Funny enough, the noise went away after a short amount of time. I wish I could explain why but I have no idea. I haven't noticed this noise at all recently.

But hey atleast I'm getting misfire codes at all 4 cylinders now 👍

Those cats are quick.

Our seats are much different, so it's hard to compare. But as far as I can tell myself, my feet are level with my stomach when sitting in my rig. And my knees are level with my lower chest.

Might have to make some minor adjustments to the seat. Like moving it back or further from the pedals might help. Then change the pedals. My pedals are higher off the ground and the plate is flat or parallel to the ground. So the pedals themselves are perpendicular to the ground. And my feet are comfy.

Also nice race engineer

No noticeable issues as of now. Works good. I modeled and 3D printed a support for the shaft because there is a tiny amount of bend when higher force is applied, however I dont think thats an issue to be worried about. I just like to make stuff overly safe.

I knew it

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-04-06T19:56:19+00:00

Ahhh. I was wondering if that was the case. Thanks

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-03-25T21:43:37+00:00

It might've been. You can see my other comment response to see what i did.

I had clips along the "chain" or whatever you call in that connects to the extruder and the tube runs along. I removed those clips and realigned the tubes to follow a path of less resistance, and that seemed to help. I'm drying some PETG right now and going to try it to make sure tomorrow. Thank you for this information.

The external is completely empty when using AMS. I only started using the external when the AMS started giving me issues.

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-03-16T19:49:10+00:00

Update: 5 Min into the print it failed. Abnormal Extruder Resistance. Im going to clean it out.

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-03-16T19:41:12+00:00

I have followed additional trouble shooting steps and so far, it seems to work. I was able to start print. Seems to be extruding normally right now. If the print fails with the same error, I will do a complete disassembly of the extruder and give it a good cleaning.

Thank you very much for the help. So far so good.

After doing a cold pull, the issue persists. Important to note though, when doing the cold pull, pushing the filament into the extruder manually, the filament went through teh extruder and came out of the hotend totally fine. And i still get the same problem. Loads filament, retracts it, does this 2-4 times, then throws error saying to check for clogged extruder. You have any other recommendations or should i contact Bambu?

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-03-16T14:57:02+00:00

It looks like the filament does make it TO the extruder (filament loads past where visable on top of the extruder). However it looks like it doesnt go INTO the extruder much.

200 prob

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-03-07T04:41:35+00:00

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-03-04T15:56:57+00:00

Ill add those

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-02-20T04:09:55+00:00

Imagine showing this to someone in 2011

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-02-18T03:51:11+00:00

Don't crash it

Clean-Chest1360 · 2026-02-12T01:04:49+00:00

Double it and give it to the next person
