I’ve got a TAZ6 which I’ve used a lot and I noticed that somewhat recently whenever the bed leveling is happening and the bed quickly moves forward and back there is a vibration in the bed. Is this maybe due to the beige bearings underneath the bed needing replacement or something else?

If it’s been used a lot, the Igus bushings could certainly be wearing down, [they’re cheap to replace](https://lulzbot.com/store/10mm-high-precision-bushing-4pk-kt-hd0003), but first clean the rods, and you can see if you can get by just rotating the bushings to a new spot.

The bushings are self-lubricating, so besides cleaning them, there’s not much to do.

But while you’re checking the bushings, check for any obstructions, little pieces of filament stuck in there.

I’ll give that a try and see what happens. Thanks!

You could check all the fasteners to make sure you don’t have a loose one anywhere.

I haven’t found anything loose on the fasteners. I do notice some play up and down if I take the bed and lift up on the end. Maybe 2mm or so. That might be normal though I don’t know. (Edited: The movement is closer to 1 mm not 2)
