metal "klunking" noise and seemingly loosing steps
I wanted to print the skew calibration test and in the beginning it went well but after like a minute I startet ro hear some metal "klunking" sound seemingly coming from the linear rails and it also seems like it lost a few steps. I have no clue what happened because the initial Z offset calibration print went without any problems. I have no idea what could have caused this other than a problem with the linear rails so I think its more fitting here than in fix-my-print.

Maybe start grabbing things and try to wiggle them, find what is loose or came loose?
well I did but I couldn´t find anything that was loose.
use a screwdriver to find where the sound is coming from - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U927cYhQXB4

I think its coming from the linear rails from the Y axis. The sound also alternates between the rails.
well it somehow fixed itself when I enabled Performance mode.
