Lead Screw Screeching (Vcore4 IDEX)
Has anybody run into an issue where the Z1 lead screw (the rear one) has some random screeching/squeaking. It happens sometimes, especially on fast Z moves (like during z tilt calibration). I am able to isolate it to that lead screw because if I put my hand on it and give it a little pull towards the front of the machine while it is screeching, the sound goes away. I put some light sewing machine oil on the lead screw which seemed to fix the issue, but I was under the impression that the POM lead screw nut shouldnt need lubrication. Also after a few days the sound seems to have returned...
