G0 Z0.254 command not executed?? Repetier host with repetier firmware starts print at 15mm

Hello,
I replaced marlin with repetier firmware on my SmartCore printer. Version 0.91 - latest download from github
I have all calibration working and bed autolevel too.

I found some issue with start of the print - it prints of with 15mm height on first layer and here are details ( see the end of commands sent to printer with M114 result)
I used Cura for slicing which have the magic line of : G1 Z15.00 F9000.00 - however what ever I leave there or comment it out it doesn't fix printing.
I think issue is that G0/G1 (doesn't matter I tested both) command that is on start of the first layer doesn't lower Z to 0.254 height (weird number? because of 5/16 Z rod I use)
G1 F9000 X59.083 Y60.883 Z0.254

If I pause print and lower to Z0.254 it still goes up after resume to 15mm

    So I have test script to reproduce this issue (stripped down extrusions) - below:

    When it starts printing my Repetier-Host (0.56) have Z=0.25 but after M114 command goes back to Z=15.
    I inserted M114 before first layer and that updates Repetier-Host app with correct Z and probably the command with G1 Z0.254 isn't ignored

    ;LAYER:0
    M107
    M114 ; enforces Repetier-Host measurments update
    G1 F9000 X59.083 Y60.883 Z0.254

    1. You should upgrade to 0.92.7 which has many fixes especially with autoleveling.
    2. I think you might have z move back after home set to 15. This is ok for deltas with z max homing but for cartesian printers should be 0. But that would only be after homing and I'm not sure if you always do autoleveling, which is normally not needed for every print.
    3. With autoprobing check z probe height. Wrong value will give you wrong height and thus wrong moves. Value is stored in eeprom!

    Thank you for response, I updated firmware to 0.92 - latest from the website, however I still have the same issue, my G32 S2 leaves 15mm height above bed and starts print at that height.
    After pausing print and sending command M114 it updates on repetier host Z=15mm from X=0.25mm(not real height) and resume print on correct height.

    I'm currently reworking the complete bed leveling stuff. It will be more flexible and easier to maintain. So please wait for 0.92.8 coming very soon.

    I do not really understand how M114 can fix the position on the printer side. It only reports the position. I understand that host will then adapt position and show preview correctly. Did you really mean it went down to 0.25 on the printer after M114?

    Great, thank you.
    I am happy to debug this issue more. 
    I do not understand why M114 fixes the Z position, but it also have something to do with "@pause". Without "@pause" even when using OctoPrint (not Repetier-host) and having M114 command in code before starting G1 command of print it still doesn't work. It must pause print, send command M114 and resume printing, so the Z is going back to correct height of 0.25.

    It might have something with remembering Z axis height after "G32 S2" command and reset it to 0, while it is 15mm. However when I do command from terminal (Repetier-host) for G1 Z0.25 it goes to correct height.

    When I get little more time I try to change some z-probe level settings and see if 15mm is being adjusted somehow.
