Z-Tilt makes it worse
I've loosened and tightened both gantry and y rails over and over re-tightened them in various orders. I can't get the bow out.
Secondly because the Ztilt measures in the center in the back and the sides on the front, i can never get a flat bed mesh as the Z-tilt always skews the bed.
Any ideas? I am stumped. Honestly i have the same issue on my Vcore 3.1 500 i never fixed, i just let the beacon do its job.

Your x is bowing downwards
Use your hand and lift the middle of x
Pul it really
Then redo z, then z tilt
Then mesh
i'm down to try that but is that the permanent fix? won't it just bow down again after?
If this is a cold mesh then yes, you should do it.
As its over 1.2mm
ok, it worked, however just as i assumed, an hour later it is going back. I was at .237 after the pull and now 1.5 hour later it is back to .500
Both on cold?
Warm
Warm it bends again but should not bend like before. If cold is 0.3 for instance on a 500 you can expect 0.6-0.7
Heat bends the rail and the 2020 x gantry differently.
Look up bi metallic effect.
