  • I disagree with it being a first layer issue otherwise it would be failing much earlier not 80% of the way through the print. If the first layer being too thick were the issue, it would also be visible or colliding with every layer below this one too and those layers appear to be fine.

    Do you have other filament to test with? That would help isolate the issue to either the filament or the printer. It could be the Z axis screws need lubrication especially if you notice this issue happening at around the same height.

    How many hours are on your nozzle? Ive had to swap out my nozzle on my X1C after having similar issues and they went away. Even the hardened steel nozzles wear out and allow too much flow through them which leaves extra plastic on the print that can lead to collisions.
