CoreXY layer shift but only in one direction

@dliving I'm using reprap firmware probably 3.0

@mrehorstdmd Heat-break almost stuck in Titan aero and volcano block is very tight impossible to unscrew without tools. Entire gantry is very stiff but heavy bcs of titan aero

With the belts disconnected from the motors are you able to move the print head smoothly over the entire range of movement?
It would appear to be some binding is happening.
Check the v slot wheel bearings by lightly resting a finger on it while moving them. You may be able to feel some roughness. I've had a few broken bearings that would roll smoothly most of the time and then occasionally get bound up and then release again. Taking them apart I found that some of the bearing balls had shattered.

@Phaedrux entire gantry is running smoothly everywhere in range. I'll check the bearings thanks. And i got another problem. I left the printer for 2 days. Nothing changed and printed a new cube for a test.... I got an ugly uneven layered cube... It looks like stretched belts or something? 1587016723028726541296325768824.jpg

The cube looks a little short too. Maybe just the angle. But if it's short, I would say you have an issue with the Z axis that deserves a closer look.
-
@Phaedrux cube have perfect 20.00mm X and Y dimensions are 20.4mm

@Hesus29 With the layers stacked so poorly it is pointless to check the dimensions. You have to get the thing to print precisely (layers stacked properly) before you bother with that.
Print a tall rectangular solid (try something like 40x40x150) with 3 perimeters and maybe 15-20% infill. Set the line width equal to the nozzle diameter. Let it get at least 100 mm tall before you stop it. Take and post pictures that show all four sides of the print.
While you're at it, post some pictures of the printer. Details count, so take a bunch of them from different angles showing the Z axis assembly, belt paths, etc.

Have you PID tuned the bed and what are you using for the build plate? Please be specific on the bed details. Provide the type of plate you are using, heater and all layers including the print surface.

So guys i just dissasembled entire axis for gantry and assembled again. Tensioned belts a little bit less and got this.
I think problem is solved? Idk what caused this thing

Friction is the enemy of mechanical freedom.
