Weird noise on X and Y axis

Hi

I've encountered a problem with my printer—it's making really strange noises on the X and Y axes and i don't know if this is normal.

You can hear them most clearly when the print head is moving diagonally (i.e., looking down from the top and front of the printer as it moves from the top right corner to the bottom left) and during homing when it changes filament color or finishes printing. The noise also occurs when the motors are off and I move the print head manually.

I’ve already tried cleaning and lubricating the linear rods, but that didn’t help. I also recorded a video of the pulleys in action, but they seem to be 100% functional.

I also recorded videos of the printer while printing, but the sound may be hard to hear—the phone picked up all the noise from the fans.

Sorry if this is a really stupid post, but I've only had the printer for 7 days and I just want to make sure it's working properly—and if it isn't, how to fix it.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Z axis clicking sound

Hi!

I just got this printer about a week ago and I noticed that it's making this clicking noise. I narrowed it down and it's coming from under the printer, where the axis motors are located.

Is this sound normal? Or should I be worried?

All of my prints are coming out fine, with no problem with layers, etc.

I checked the motors and there is nothing touching them.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm a newbie in the world of 3D printing.

Thank you in advance for your help!
