Thanks for the fast response!
I have tried the printercore cleaning multiple times already before making this forum post and that did not help.
I cleaned my feeder, just like you said, and I also lubricated the gears.
After this, I started a new print but just like before, it stops extruding some time after starting the print and again, the only way to get it to extrude again is cutting off the last few cms of the PLA.
This happens with every print, and all settings are the default settings.
Is there anything else I might be able to do?
Thanks in advance!

Hey @TUeStudent,
Welcome to the forum! 🚀
You seem to have some heavy underextrusion. 😥
The first thing I do whenever I'm encountering under extrusion is perform a PrintCore cleaning.
You can find the procedure in the maintenance screen. Just follow the instructions that pop-up on screen.
I expect you'll have quite some grinding so I also reccommend checking/cleaning your feeder.
You can find the instructions here: (Be careful to not lose any parts while dissasembling)

If it happends just on this printjob and not on others it might be related to your settings in Cura.
Did you change a lot of settings? Especially things related to Temperature, Flow or Speed?
I reccommend staying as close to the default settings as possible.
Good luck! Please let me know if any of these tips worked for you. 😃
