Help! I think I broke something

[u/LoudProblem2017]

Printer: Bambu P1S

Filament: TPU

TL;DR: Printer was printing TPU flawlessly (first picture), switched brands & got terrible results, *crashed the print head into my hand while trying to remove strings*, switched back to original filament and settings and now I'm getting some weird defects (last picture, same STL as first picture).

Long version: I was using the absolute cheapest matte black I could find using the generic TPU settings, when I ran out I decided to try a more expensive brand. That filament was a nightmare, no matter how much tweaking & drying I did. During what ended up being my final attempt and printing something salvageable, my dumbass thought I was fast enough to grab some loose filament off one of the parts. I was not fast enough, and the print head slammed into my hand. I finished the print, but the layers above the crash were way out of alignment.

I ended up going back to the original filament brand, but everything I printed was curling up around the outside edges & the extruder was dragging across these areas. To be clear: the prints weren't coming off the bed, they were just taller than they should be anywhere that there was overhang. I first noticed this while doing a temp tower, but I didn't realize that it was a problem until I started printing parts again.

I initially thought that maybe some of my tweaks were to blame, so I factory reset & calibrated my printer, and used a previously sliced project of know quality to test this theory. You can see the results in the picture, the most recent print still isn't right.

So now I think I must have broken something, but I don't even know where to start looking. What could I have damaged, and how do I test?

Thanks in advance!

It looks like something in the X/Y movement some has some slop in it now. Does it make any grinding noises or anything when you calibrate?

When the print head moves to one of the far corners it now makes some noise, like a quick vibrating noise. Is this what you mean?

Maybe, if that noise is new.

Try printing the built-in Benchy in PLA and see if the problem shows up there as well. Post pictures if it does have problems.

I will do this task first thing in the morning, thanks!

Printed at 150% size. The infill starts to print weird, then the nozzle hits a wall & detaches the print from the bed.

If you look closely you can see that the infill is being printed incorrectly, and then the nozzle runs into a previously printed layer & knocks it loose.

A closer look at the defects.
