My bowden tube keeps moving when printing and wont relieve the pressure. I have cleaned out everything and it still does it. It is making the extruder gear skip. Any help? Im using a ender 3 pro and cura for slicer

depressing the pneumatic stop at the top and reseating the tube is not helping? what about the round clip that locks the pneumatic depressing pin into place? do you have one?

you never answered that.

otherwise.. getting better ones will solve that issue. the problem is probably the pins that hold the tube in are most likely bent to beyond hell.

Zip tie also works

that should work if the pins are fine. if not. nothing is really going to help unless you are able to realign the pins. or buy new ones.. with better quality than what is delievered with creality.

you could try rebending them back. but are probably better off getting a 1 or 2 of better quality.
