X-Axis self test issue

Hello, I've had my Prusa MINI for a few years, and in the past year or so it cannot pass the X-Axis self test. My prints have been mostly satisfactory so I ignored it for awhile, but it seems there may be a recent firmware update that now nags me every time I start a print, so I've taken a closer crack at diagnosing.

No matter what I've tried so far, it consistently fails "rew X-Axis u/50 mm/s", landing above the target <182,192> range.

I I've tried loosening/tightening the belt, using the belt tuner app, but I can only get the X-Axis measured length to vary by tiny amounts.

Can anyone advise what I'm missing? Thanks in advance.
