Filament not extruding and clicking

After printing with Prusament PLA for a while, the filament stops extruding. Only a few layers are printed. Then the gearbox starts making a clicking noise.
I’ve had to clean the idler and nozzle before (the filament hardened and broke). The filament feeding issue keeps recurring.
When assembling the hotend with the nozzle, the hotend moves around the axis (not just down); could that also be the cause of the problem? Thanks

The Prusa Galaxy PLA they sent out has issues jamming the hotend, assuming this was the pla used.
