i3 MK3S clunking noise and light 1st layer issues

Hello,

Had my trusty i3 MK3S+ since 2021 and have notice lately that there is a clunking noise every so often and related maybe, maybe not, it seems the 1st layer onto the board is pretty light as you can see and hear both in the video.  

Anyone out there maybe know what might be causing one or both?  I have not made any recent changes.

Thank you.

That looks like a partial clog - have you changed from a high melting temperature filament to a lower temperature one recently?  A cold pull should fix it ... I suspect you might also have a worn nozzle, it's not obvious with the other problem but recalibrating your first layer offset would't hurt.

Re clunking, check your idler bearings.

Cheerio,
