I had this problem as well, i'm not really sure how I fixed it but I know it had something to do with the drive settings in your firmware.

I am having some struggles with under extrusion on my Anet A8 so I wouldn't copy the E values.
I also changed my leadscrews to some with a lower leadscrew pitch, so the steps per mm for the standard rods should be 400.
