K2 Plus Knocking Sounds

I have a K2 Plus that is making knocking sounds when the print head is in motion and matches the rhythm of the print head. Has anyone else experienced this, if so, any ideas? I tightened all the Z rods, no avail.

Clean and lube the tracks and see if that helps

That sounds like something loose and rattling. I’d go thru and check all the screws, belts, etc.

Think its the cable holder of the extruder that touch the side panel.

Thanks! Will give that a go and see if it stops the rattle.

Similar sound by mine K2 on the left side, I think the Slide Bearing makes the noise, Cleaning, greasing….nothing helps. I think the bearing must be changed.

The bearing sound can go away by turning the rod this video explains. I used my hand to turn. https://youtube.com/shorts/eLZdnJHv7L4?is=-2yL8Y7WdAp3P5Uz
