Disassembled Extruder motor not rotating while purging

Hey, I got my Printer 2 weeks ago as a Kit.

After assembly I had a hard time pushing filament in and after I managed to do that the extruder made noises in the purging phase and nothing came out. Unless I actually pushed it (helped the motor purging by hand

Therefore, I disassembled the extruder and checked the motor, and it was rotating back and forth and the whole motor housing is shaking while purging (the actual loading phase is rotating smoothly without shaking at all)

I validated all wiring and all tests pass in the wizard.  

I will upload videos to show you how the motor is spinning in purge

Is this normal ? should I check other issues related to extruder noises ?

Get on the chat with Prusa Support via shop.prusa3d.com. At minimum, to register a warranty complaint in case it's serious.
