[Closed] Smooth Vertical Walls - Are they possible?  

Smooth Vertical Walls - Are they possible?

I print mainly with eSun PLA+ and never had issues prior to the MMU upgrade. Over the past few weeks and over a kilogram of filament later I've managed to greatly reduce stringing and blobbing for single color prints. One glaring defect I can not seem to get rid of is z-wobble or irregular vertical wall surfaces. Prior to the upgrade, vertical walls were incredibly smooth. Now they feel like I'm running my finger across sandpaper.

Picture for reference (blue/bottom was prior to the upgrade, red/top is post upgrade): https://imgur.com/NCweeTI

I've attempted multiple different possible solutions with Prusa Chat Support to no avail ( https://imgur.com/Pcgqcmv ):

Is there anything I can do to help at least narrow down the root cause? Shotgunning possible solutions doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere...
