<p>In my experience, 225 °C is the lower range for PETG, that combined with a higher than normal printing speed of 70 mm/s might be your issue. The lower your print temps the lower the maximum nozzle flow rate. I would recommend increasing the nozzle temperature.</p>
<p>For a point of reference, on my printer with an E3D v6 clone and a generic extruder I print PETG at 235 °C and 60 mm/s and 24 mm/s outer perimeter speed, with a 0.2 mm layer thickness. Though admittedly not optimized for speed.</p>

hmmm, maybe it's really the temperature question Thanks for the tip! I'll try it and come back with results:)

Yes, I have a calibrated LA and on the pictures it is enabled. "Later I thought it could be related to Linear Advance and disabled it on the next test print, but it did nothing:("

buuut, of cource, maybe my current settings isn't enough. So I need to calibrate it more

But I don't have such issue printing infill on 70 mm/s - https://imgur.com/a/8ixtmnP . All the infill lines are clean and even.

And also, the most recent and approved answer you gave link to says:

"FarO did not specify details of the printer(s) in question, but I found the big limiting factor for my Ender 3 printing PETG was the stock extruder, which presumably was skipping bad to begin with, and even worse with Linear Advance, trying to keep the filament under high pressure to compensate for its compressibility. Since replacing the extruder with a direct drive one, I've had no problem printing PETG at the same speed as PLA, and both can print much faster than I ever could with the stock bowden extruder."

If it were a problem of speed, why is the issue appearing when exiting corners, instead of in the middle of long segments, which are printed faster?

<p>I've recently changed my Ender3's hotend to E3D v6 clone with Titan direct extruder, so I can print faster than on stock. But when I increased the speed up to 70 mm/s for walls and 80 mm/s for infill (PETG, nozzle temperature of 225 °C, bed temperature of 80 °C, 0.2 mm layer height, 0.4 mm layer width), I've faced this kind of issue:</p>

I've recently changed my Ender3's hotend to E3D v6 clone with Titan direct extruder, so I can print faster than on stock. But when I increased the speed up to 70 mm/s for walls and 80 mm/s for infill (PETG, nozzle temperature of 225 °C, bed temperature of 80 °C, 0.2 mm layer height, 0.4 mm layer width), I've faced this kind of issue:

The printer's head goes from left to right, counter-clockwise and I get issues on both exits from curved shape.

PETG can have difficulty printing at higher speeds.

See [Why does PETG require slower speed?](https://3dprinting.stackexchange.com/questions/13412/why-does-petg-require-slower-speed)

Also, if the speed is too slow, it tends to have heat creep.

See [What are ways to avoid heat creep?](https://3dprinting.stackexchange.com/questions/15629/what-are-ways-to-avoid-heat-creep)

Higher nozzle temperatures should allow faster print speeds, but will also increase the chance of heat creep and increase the slowest required speed to prevent heat creep.
