Print displacement Y axis

I'm having Y displacement issues with larger prints.  I have checked the Y axis pully and Y axis carriage movement and all seems to be fine.

The problem seems to go away when I switch to "High Power" printing but what is going on?  I like "silent" mode better if I can solve the underlying issue.

Thanks

RE: Print displacement Y axis

I had this at some point when the extruder was leaking slightly and also when it was over-extruding. In both cases extra goop would be sticking up above the print level, causing the Y axis to skip a step or ten when it snagged. Y axis seemed to be the weakest link in this, at least for me.

The issue is solved.  The Y -axis belt was misaligned.  High power mode covered up the problem,

  I also checked that the linear bearings were operation smoothly and the shafts were lubricated.
