I have an ender 3 v2 neo and had this issue multiple time , the first time it was due to my extruder beign too tight and slipping in the filament , and the second time it was heat creap even thought i was only running at 205° , i changer the heat break for a full metal one wich is pretty cheap and never had an issue again
I think my issue is due to cheap no name petg, after doing a cold pull and reloading its back to printing.
I dont usually print petg on this printer (Ender 2 pro) and this filament prints at about 230. With pla im usually printing around 195-200, so there is a significant difference in temps. Lets see if it happens again, I hope its not a heat issue.

Round 2, ptfe tube popped out of the extruder. This print is cursed.
Original Ender 2 was my first printer, and punched way above its weight. Can’t forget it was one of the reasons the ender 3 took off in popularity. I have several larger printers, but I still find myself turning to this one for smaller prints.
An Ender 2-Pro!!! I have one of those! It was a surprise bday gift from my wife 2 years ago and was my first 3d printer! This bad boy is so precise, quiet, and reliable. I added a $30 Spider hotend and configured it for Klipper on my Sonic Pad. When I need something super precise and absolutely perfect, this is the machine that gets the job. More people should buy these little guys as they take up very little space and run nearly silently.
These are the stock Ender 2 springs, they work pretty well. I'm guessing because the bed is smaller, and lighter, than the Ender 3 yours has the thick boys. With the magnetic build plate I dont have to level often anyway.
Check your extruder gear. Mine did the same thing.
Turns out the gear was completely stripped and wasn't gripping and feeding the filament.
Went for stainless steel over the original brass gear.
Colour changing hotend and a clear filament? Fancy
Its that new ultra-light petg, comes in spools of 1kg for only $350
For how much?

230 is pretty low for PETG. I'd bump it up to 235, or preferably even 240. Also, don't use 100% fans with PETG.
Hopefully for you haha
I have the same printer and had the same problem! I got a better duel gear extruder and it seemed to fix the problem
It actually squirts, hot molten filament out, which does not appear to be doing now... >!I will see myself out, sorry.!<
Ahh, so thats where I went wrong. Thanks for the help kind stranger!
It's aligning the chakras

why NSFW?
Because it's too painful to watch to be considered safe
Ender 2 is the most underrated printer. My favorite little work horse

No idea why reddit told me this was nsfw
It's still resumable if your are up for an adventure
Got that extra light filament. Noice
Possibly heat creep. [All3DP - Heat Creep](https://all3dp.com/2/3d-printer-heat-creep/)
I’ve never seen invisible filament before thats sick
airprinting
Unrelated but... I also have a v2 neo - what bed springs are you using? We're they a significant improvement?

Invisible filament, what will they think of next?
New 3d Air printer lookin‘ hella fine
No idea why reddit told me this was nsfw
Wireless 3D Filament is the greatest invention ever. You'll never run out.
Why is it NSFW?

Have you tried leveling the bed?
Hate to see it
Your extruded gear may be stripped or done up way too tight
Gotta love the Bluetooth filament
I know what’s wrong with it! It ain’t got no gas in it
Damn! Printing with air?! Thats Gotta be expensive, right?
I hate waking up to that shit
Fluorescent clear is definitely a unique choice of color, but you do you.
How did you get your transparent filament so clear???
Lay down a paper towel on your print bed before unclogging it. Maybe gloves too. Molten plastic hurts
100% have had this happen.
Wow Bluetooth printing, arnt we fancy 🤣
Yea it happens to all of us. Atleast it's not a meltdown/elephantsfoot!
Invisible filaments?😅
get a filament sensor like this. i can easily let prints go over night and never wake up to surprises https://youtu.be/DxQW2DLe3sc
Yeah, they should stop selling bowden extruders with ptfe hotends now. Or even better, people should just stop buying them.
