    When it comes to nextruder assembly - the screws are not the same that were removed after putting the fan spacer and holder. They're slightly longer. Otherwise the entire extruder system is held by half a millimeter of screw and a dream. (Referring to 21min mark)

    Completed my MK3s to Mk4s upgrade in about 22hours last month. They are short of about 10 x 12mm bolts and 6 3mm Nylocs for my upgrade but gave me many extras of other not required fasteners. The Web instructions are excellent. The LCD stopped working after about 10 prints. Replugged the flat wire connectors and reflashed. Started to work again. Required a lot of cutting the wire management holding cable ties to do this. Irritating as I need to take the thing apart again to refit the cable ties into the electronics box. The suggested fixes in the Prusa Forum referring to the interference from stepper motor cables did not work in my case. Prusa support was good and got back within the day. I think it was the reflash that fixed the LCD problems. They came back yet again and suggested some other possible solutions. I will try them if I experience the same problems.

      Yeah, the upgrade kit is horrendous. I'm working with Mk4 - Mk4s upgrade kit. Component quality is horrendous. The tolerances are all over the place. It feels like a kit bought from Etsy or AliExpress.

    Thanks for this. My upgrade kit just came in a few hours ago. There was a bit of deja-vu, as I built a Mk3s and my present Mk4 from kits - which I HIGHLY recommend as one gets valuable insights into the working of the beastie.

    I have a MK4 that I upgraded from a MK3S+. Will this kit work on this since it was already upgraded? Also, will the MK4 nozzles work on the MK4S? I ask because I have two brand new nozzles I purchased for the MK4. Thank you.

      Because there wasnt a reply, yes to all. You can upgrade your mk3 to mk4 to 4s it's the same nozzles mk4 to mk4s this upgrade just happens to have a CHT nozzle for added value but not required.

      Thanks for your comment! Yes you will have to add your printer to Prusa Connect again as it will have a new serial number. This can be done using NFC through the Prusa app. You can read more about the app here help.prusa3d.com/article/prusa-mobile-app_735711
