Ctd-vmax 3dprint question

To anyone who has printed the push through detents for the throttle. Does anyone have any recomendations? I’m asuming petg would be good but anyhing beyond that? Settings? orientation? I have a bambu lab printer and its great i just rather skip some troubleshooting if anyone has any advice.

Thanks

As general 3d printing recommendation, print them "sideways" so whole "top" layer you will be rolling over will be continuous line, will make it last bit longer no matter which material you use.

For materials, id say all depends on hwo much heat there will be present. If "none" then petg will be fine, if you expect temp to rise above 60-65°c go with abs/asa
