By the way you can have the log file sent to the USB and then bring it to your computer and examine it. The height difference is displayed. I think maybe 0.5mm is the max difference allowed? Or maybe it's 1.5mm - I forget.
I think I remember - the right core should stick down 1.5mm farther than the left core (when down - when in printing mode) with a tolerance of 0.5mm.
It's possible to edit that tolerance - pretty easy if you are comfortable with linux and ssh but if you introduce a typo you'll have to unbrick your printer with a uSD card (or get an olimex serial cable). Also your edit will get lost on the next firmware upgrade.
It's also possible you printed a lot of abrasive filament (like glowfill or carbon fill) and that your nozzle tip on your core is .5mm shorter now and you may have just not noticed yet. You might just need a new core.
