X axis belt issues, belt seems twisted and printer seems to skip when moving to the far left.

Hi, I set my mk3 a few days and noticed that the x axis belt is twisted in on the left side a bit. This didn't seem to affect the print and I got through the calibration without issue. After a few days of printing I got layer shift and noticed that the extruder isn't going all the way left when homing. I let off the x belt tension (its at 235 at the moment) but I noticed that extruder hitches when going all the way left. Is this normal? I read people got their pulleys replaced because of the belt twisting issue, do I need this?

Nevermind I had the pulley on in the wrong direction 😫
