<p>I just purchased this Ender 3 Pro about 1 week ago and since then I've been having nightmares with leveling/tramming the printer bed. From having to tram it again after every print to not being able to level it at all.
Since then I've been reading and watching a lot of problem-related content to try and find a solution.</p>
<p>The two most recommended upgrades were a glass bed and stiffer springs for the bed so that's what I bought. I purchased the original Creality glass bed and the yellow springs and for a day or so I got it to work in an acceptable way but I still had to tram the bed every couple of prints.
Today for some unknown reason, I woke up and I can't seem to get my bed leveled in the middle. I've tried every possible solution that crossed my mind but the middle of the bed is still too far from the nozzle and the filament won't stick.</p>

The nozzle is usually considered a consumable part unless it's made of something like tungsten carbide, or at least steel.

The hotend is serviceable, you can buy separate &quot;nozzles&quot; (with integrated heater block) for it in <a href="https://www.123-3d.nl/3D-printer-onderdelen/Extruder/J-Head-p388.html" rel="noreferrer">some e-shops</a>. You should be able to unscrew the &quot;nozzle&quot; from the PEEK nozzle holder. The milled flat surfaces indicate that you can use a 13\xa0mm or 1/2&quot; open-end wrench to disassemble the PEEK nozzle holder.</p>\n<p>The &quot;nozzle&quot;:</p>\n<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/a3MXz.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/a3MXz.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>\n<p>The instruction to assemble such a hotend are:</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Mk V</strong></p>\n<ol>\n<li>Secure the brass nozzle in a vise by the heater section.</li>\n<li>Wrap a couple of turns of PTFE tape (plumbing tape) around the brass threads.</li>\n<li>Screw the nozzle holder down onto the nozzle. If no flats are milled, use a pair of pliers to tighten the nozzle. The nozzle holder can be protected from the pliers by first wrapping it with a rag or paper towel. If there are flats milled, a 13 mm (1/2&quot;) open-end wrench can be used to tighten the nozzle.</li>\n<li>Remove the brass nozzle from the vise.</li>\n<li>Slide the PTFE liner down into the nozzle holder. The PTFE liner needs to be inserted such that the flat end is making contact with the brass and the internally tapered end is towards the top.\nInstall the washer.</li>\n<li>Screw in the hollow-lock socket set screw. Ensure that the washer stays centered while tightening this set screw. Use a piece of filament to ensure that the set screw is not too tight as the liner can become compressed and obstruct the passage. If this happens, slightly loosen the set screw.</li>\n</ol>\n</blockquote>\n<p>To disassemble you need to reverse the order.</p>\n<p>You need to ask yourself it you want to change to a newer type of hotend, but generally, these are higher, e.g. compared to a V6:</p>\n<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/2XnBm.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/2XnBm.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>\n'}]
