the first 3 days my printer had no issues but sudenly the extruder couldn’t pull the filament in and caused to clog my extruder. After cleaning it it worked again but almost happend again. Could it be that the dryer from creality is causing te problem? Since the tubing is not straight under the filament feed? Or could it be that the filament spool has problems?
 
One of the first things I did when I got my K1C was to get the Bowden tube out of the 'chain' and mount it on top with cable ties making sure that the tube has less angle going into the extruder. Mind you I had already printed and installed a lid raising mod which allows you extra room for the Bowden tube to have a more vertical run going into the extruder. This has lessened the issues with clogging 'plugs' in the extruder. Mind you some brands of filament will just do it ALL THE TIME.
