Also, is that yellow print in PETG? I have a translucent red that exhibits that exact same behavior. I ended up with a super light opaque pink that looks like it's full of air bubbles at 220c,but at 250c (and no fan) and higher layer heights (.25mm) it keeps that deep translucent color. If it's PET, try printing without a fan and slow way down (I have to print pet at 15-30mm/s for good prints) also I try to use the fan only for bridges or fine detail/overhangs

I think it is heat creep. I ran into this a while ago when i brought my printer to the garage. It printed fine in the house, and then when summer rolled around it started to fail. PLA and PETG. I was a random pass, but I finally figured it out. heat creep and when the filiment would do a retraction it would buldge at the nozzel and get jammed up. I can print when the temp drops to about 75-80.
I am in the process of making a machined part to add water cooling. I'll post if it works out well
