Does anyone have an idea

You should adapt your slicer settings to the new setup.
Looks like the retract is not spot on and temps are too high/cooling too low.

Could be other stuff as well but this can’t be checked due to missing klippy.log…

Thanks for the quick reply…
I have tried with different settings on temperature, retraction speed etc.
I’ve also tried changing the setting for wall ordering to outside to inside and that only makes them worse…
it’s not mechanical because if I change the Z Seam Aligment to sharpest corner the problem moves with…
I will try a slicer other than Cura and see if that changes anything

problem solved…
after updating Cura I had not turn on show all and under Klipper Settings I only saw Enable Firmware Retraction…
in the printer config file under firmware retraction I had not defined any unretract_extra_length…
after i turned on show all in Cura I could now see that there was a point for unretract_extra_length. which stood at -1 and which should mean that Klipper config has control but the result was my problem…
after setting unretract_extra_length =0 all problems disappeared
