Did printing with PETG ever work with your printer?
You could create two gcode files for the same model, one for PLA and one for PETG and see if something stands out in their difference.
I got a farfetched theory ... Maybe your printer is underpowered. Printing PETG requieres a higher temperature and thus more power. This is absolute guesswork, but you could try to disconnect your printer from the power outlet and tighten the screws for the power connections going from the power supply unit and going into your printers main board

I've seen a model on Printables.com (Ninja Pot by @Wilko) which didn't show the standard orange color for the whole model. This works because the 3MF file format supports colors. Afaik some slicers even support that information for multi color prints, but I'm not sure about that. There are a few solutions how to do that (a plugin for blender, another one for OpenSCAD, afaik Netfabb), but I decided to write my own. Hopefully there isn't a totally obvious solution available that I overlooked ^^
It is hosted on Github, you can access and use it through your browser.
You can "upload" (it never leaves your browser) an 3MF file and change the color of the whole model, or you can change only some parts of it.
It has three tools:
- Mesh painting tool to paint whole objects
- Triangle painting tool to paint single triangles/faces of the model
- Triangle Neighbor painting tool which allows to paint all triangles which have the same orientation/plane
After painting you can export it a 3MF file again, and upload it to Printables. You can see an example here.
I'd love to hear some feedback from you.
There is still some work to do (Performance and I'm sure the 3MF export won't work for all models), but I'm already happy how this turned out.

I created a web app which allows you to "upload" [1] 3MF files and change the color of its meshes.
I solely created this, so I can color my models on printables.com in its 3d model viewer. Maybe it work on other platforms too :shrug:
Why? I just didn't find a simple solution to my problem.
- Afaik color support is broken for Fusion360 3MF export,
- there is a plugin for Blender, which is a whole other beast (one of you fellow printers mentioned it in the last few days)
- For openscad, there is https://github.com/jschobben/colorscad
I'm currently working on vertex coloring and improving the UI. I'd be happy to hear some feedback from you guys.
There are still some things to figure out and fix (normals are often wrong). If any Threejs devs read this: I'd be happy to hear what I can improve, I've no clue what I did.

For me it was the OS. We agreed, when I started my job, that I would use Windows but that I would eventually switch to Linux, which I did a few months in. If they wouldn't allow it, although agreed upon, I would have left - which I did anyways, but for totally different reasons
Ahh, don't put salt in my wounds ;) I only had a few meters left and chose the wrong settings
My submission to Printables piggy bank contest. Was done in Fusion 360. Face could be exchanged for other animals, or none-animal things, so I'd love to see remixes of that.

If you are into 3D printing you could create filament out of it ... https://hackaday.com/2020/12/16/3d-printing-with-vhs-tape-filament/
It was a feature request by a maintainer from 2019, closed by another maintainer in 2023, reopen by the original maintainer shortly after, then closed again a few months later by a maintainer and reopened by the original again
I repurposed the lightning element of an Ikea Solvinden lantern to fit a custom lamp shade. The lamp was created with OpenScad with a ton of customization options :D Printed with yellow Prusament PETG
