    Have you had any more water leak problems since fixing the rear vent? I'm having leaking issue the dealership said it was the A/C drain leaking back in but I told them I really don't drive or use the A/C but they claim that was the issue. They put the elbow in and dried the car out, took the car home and the water issue is back so I will check the vent

    • @theguyofalltrades

    I am still majorly struggling with my printer over 1 year later. its the Neptune 3 plus. I have never once been able to get it consistently level. ironically my old cr 10 with the glass bed... I never had any issues. I have updated the firmware and have followed the instructions after buying a long feeler gauge and its improved but even today I cannot get it to consistently print correctly. I saw the comment to screw the wheels tight and reset the offset to zero and try again so ill see if that might help. sorry for the ramble I just don't think this printer is worth the headache..... at least the 3 plus in my case. I have to say as for a guide your video has been the best resource i used for improved results so you have my thanks!
