      Hey,
      Thanks for all of the advice, sorry it has taken me a bit to respond as we have been dealing with a sick child and everything had to go on back burner for a few days. I will post config.g in the morning as soon as I get off work. I have the current turned up to stepper rated current and ptfe lube on the screws and linear rods. It all moves fairly effortlessly. I dropped speed way down for Z and did a side to side level at screws. Takes 6x before bed is even both sides and im ok with that. I then home it and do it again and it shows z axis off by .8mm again. Hopefully this is making sence lol. Also I am using the 0.9°, 180°C high temp stepper motors since this printer will be doing alot of PC and Nylon in a enclosure. Also wondering if the bltouch may be going bad, I have one of the ir sensors the dc designed that i got from filistruder so i may give that a shot also if its more acurate.

          cant find anything hanging up on z axis either bed drops from z0 down to bottom when unplugged on its own. just to be sure i put a small amount of lithium grease on the rods and the screws but still same issue

            this was after skew macro above and running a mesh compensation probe then checking skew againsame result even when i turn accell and jerk way down.

                Well you are running a older firmware. I suggest you update to 3.1.1 by downloading this zip file and uploading it as is (don't extract it) to the sys folder in DWC.

                  X20:380 doesn't sound right for the location of your lead screws. -20 and 420 perhaps based on your M208.

                  M208 X400 Y400 Z500 S0 ; set axis maxima

                  Unrelated, but not sure why you would want to turn off interpolation on the extruder motor unless you like more noise?

                  M350 E16 I0

                  Your homeall calls the other homing macros, but you haven't included homez, so I can't see how you're actually homing the Z axis.

                  M98 P"homey.g"

                    Do you use bed.g/G32 or are you just calling this macro?

                      just calling that macro,
                      I cant reach to the full 400 on bed due to the mounts for the linear rails hence why i am using X20380
                      I thought it was the newest firmware on there but ill go ahead and upload 3.1.1 This may be because I had the original sd card get corrupted and had to redo disk image on it.
                      M350 could that be because I turned off microstepping on that? I was told it didnt need it since it was the extruder. Its actually still really quiet lol
                      sorry for not including the home z I must have accidently double clicked it.

                          M671 is defining the location of the lead screws themselves not where you can reach them. The probe points are defined in your macro.

                          Well microstepping is the x16 part, so you're still using microstepping and you definitely do want that. Interpolation allows the drivers to take those x16 microsteps and convert them internally to x256 pulses for the motors for smooth quiet motion. So you definitely want x16 with interpolation on.

                          In your homez you should change the position where it probes to be the center of the bed. Right now it looks like you have it set to a corner.

                          G1 X35 Y17 F6000 ; go to first probe point
                          G30 ; home Z by probing the bed

                          By correcting the M671 to use the actual position of the lead screw and then probing the center of the bed you should be able to improve the performance of the leveling routine.

                          Might be a good idea to review this

                            thank you I will adjust as instructed, Thank you for helping me with this. I did have it set to a corner but in my start gcode what I did was have it heat the bed and nozzle then do a G30 at the center just before it starts printing I will change that. Thanks again for your time. It is very much appreciated.
