Extruder soft click

My extruder is making soft clicks when laying down the V2 calibration code as well as when doing a lot of infill. It seems that a little bit of underextrusion is happening as well while the clicking is going on even though it is pulling filament in nicely.

You can hear the clicking in the following video.

Re: Extruder soft click

Clicks are slipping filament (it bouncing backwards). Either your temperature isn't hot enough (can't get filament through), or you are too close the bed (therefore blocking the nozzle exit) or your tension on the extruder isn't high enough.

I tried running the V2 calibration without any filament in, and it still made the clicking sound :/
