Fw glitch?

I found an interesting glitch, that has kept happening since the last couple firmware updates. When a print hits a certain percentage it shifts about a minor amount on the x axis, and about 5-10% more of the print then corrects back to where it should be. In addition when moving the x axis after it completes when you return it to the far point of the left it recenters the home spot. I have a picture here so you can see what I mean by the axis shift and return. Never had the problem prior to the updates.

Which firmware version are you seeing this with? 3.8x has known issues with the filament sensor enabled.

I'm on 3.9.0.

I didn't think it would be the filament sensor. Is it still a thing with 3.9 as well?

I tried turning off the filament sensor, just to see what would happen, and it shifted the other way. I currently have another print running after reassembling the x axis and managing the belt tension and will see what happens.

So after re-enabling the sensor, I print a smaller print and it came out flawlessly. I then proceeded to try a larger one and it had shifted on the y axis.
