We're on a mission in this video to solve this strange surface quality issue on our New Ender 3 V3 KE

This is a follow up to the review video where we discovered the problem with what looked to be an extrusion issue, there was also a problem with too much 'slop' in the bearings below the bed for the Y axis movement.
In this video, we'll go through the process of finding the source of the problem by taking things apart in our usual style and then we'll run through a series of tests to prove or dis-prove the theorys.
I've printed with PETG, ABS, TPU, CF, ABS, ASA and PC, and I've never had this issue before. It seems to be related somehow to speed, but also possibly to the material, PETG seems to have more of this issue occurring, but I also can see the problem on PLA but to a lesser extent.
The KE runs with a Sprite style of DD extruder, and it looked to me to be a little under-engineered for the job, I thought that would be a good place to start...

Bambu H2C - tidd.ly/3K3sSY9 (If you print with color, this is the way)
Bambu P2S - tidd.ly/3ISZkfq (Best value)
Bambu H2S - tidd.ly/4olSRbL (Most options for money)
Bambu H2D - tidd.ly/4q9RsHk (A dual color beast)
Bambu Filament Shown in Videos - tidd.ly/4hn6TYI
Rode Wireless ME mic (Saved me about 4+ hours/vid) - amzn.to/3vcMKAr
Mag clip (Super handy, but a little pricy) - amzn.to/3NBFvZe
Here is a link to a solution by @DerrickDarrell
