Extruder skipping

Lately I experience a problem with a skipping extruder: When I am in Filament Loading mode it will extrude all day with no skipping but as soon as I start to print a model the extruder will start skipping right from the start. However I do not print that fast, I don't think the extruder would have to extrude more while printing than while loading.

The problem has arrived more or less overnight, the feed wheels are clean and I have not changed anything, the printer has printed the same PETG filament successfully so far, and the hotend temperature while printing is 10° higher than while loading.

What do you recommend to look into to solve this?

RE: Extruder skipping

I have the exact same problem. I have dismantled the entire extruder,and cleaned it all, changed the PTFE tube, new nozzle, cleaned the heatbreak, it is completely clean, when feeding filament its all ok, but when starting to print the clicking sounds starts and no filament is fed. I have exhausted all tips and tricks I have found to no avail....
