Hey guys, thanks for the diagnosis.
I took a trip to the filament trashcan and found some of those tips that were cut off when changing filament.
I think I might have the same issue as braddock, albeit not that extreme. Regarding the bowden tube play, do you mean the whole bowden tube with the white ring at the top of the head? If yes, than I have about 1-2mm play when I pull on it. A the bottom, right above the teflon piece, I see the bowden tube moving up and down:
By the way, the long orange filament strand was attached to the tip that I cut off. I thought, one of these days this thing will get stuck inside the extruder, right above the knurled bolt and when I push new filament in it will move inside the head and definitely cause a clog...

Yes! Now let's try to get that bowden tube shoved down the teflon interface piece. You must get your printer up to snuff, I want to see what you end up printing with a properly functional UM2.
