Thats why i advised you not to speed up and loosen tension on such a heavy spool.

Now the spool is on a spool holder with bearings and there is less friction than with a regular spool (but it's taking a lot of place XD)
I took care of the angle from which the filament enters the feeder and it's printing like a charm now !
Thanks @phantom ?
Good luck with it ??

If you start to hear clicking sounds when putting a 2.2kg spools on the back instead of the standard 750-1000 gram, the last thing you should do is speed up the print, and loosen the tension, try the other way around.

thanks @phantom
the problem was the increased friction due to the increased weight of the spool
the tension was building itself on the filament guide and every 5/10 seconds the tension was released and it "clicks"
I strongly advise a separate spool holder for this size...
