Prusa Core one clicking while purging / printing and uneven purging

I had to change my printer location and after plugging it back in I have had issues with print quality. When purging or printing it starts to make a clicking sound and at the same time the purging is uneven. I have tried this with several different filaments and the problem persists. All the calibrations are ok.

 

 

What could be the issue? It printed perfectly before this.

 

Edit. For some reason the video won't upload showing the issue.

I noticed you have a custom planetary gear cover. I can also see the gears slipping. I would start by pulling out the planetary gear assembly, cleaning it and carefully re-seating it using the PG-assembly adapter: https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/how-to-replace-nextruder-filament-sensor-core-one_922421#941218 then I would rerun the gearbox calibration.

I noticed that when I took it apart to reassemble it the " 5x10x0.1 spacer" wasn't there. 

Would that cause the gears to slip?

It must have been misplaced during the MMU3 Nextruder conversion.  I'm ordering it.  https://www.prusa3d.com/product/spacer-5x10x0-1mm/
