Loud moves by the Toolhead

I have recently assembled a new MKS/2 with a 2.5 upgrade, simultaneously. The new printer is printing really well and I'm getting great prints.

However, on lateral(back and forth) X-axis moves, I get a horrible scratchy, scraping noise.

With 45 degree moves the printer is quiet.

I tried to attach videos, but they are not selectable.

Any ideas anyone?

Re: Loud moves by the Toolhead

Sounds like what I have going on, scratched rods by a faulty linear bearing. Do you have black grease built up on any of the x axis rods or any of the smooth rods??
