Under extrusion

Under extrusion

Hi guys, do any of you have any idea what am I doing wrong, I already leveled the bed many times and always get the same result, top and bottom is OK, left and right faces are not perfect but I can live with it but always the face in the back of the print, on x axis is always under extruded. Any ideas on why this might be?

I’m using an Ender 5 plus with Hatchbox PLA, I have tried different speeds, the one on the picture was printed at 50, the printer is fairly new, I only have about 3 weeks with it and at first it was printing OK with the PLA that came with the printer, then I used another PLA I got online without brand(cheap), and I started having issues on the top layer but it was until I started using the Hatchbox that the under extrusion started.

(UPDATE)

I just did another quick test and this came out. It was printed with no infill and the walls not look a lot better, all of them, but obviously the top layers have holes in it. But this is my first printer, I’m very new to 3d printing and still have no idea how to get better quality on the walls while using infill.
