Profile View showing wrong Surface profile

Hello. 
Something strange I have come to today.

My Longitudinal profile is appearing not where it should be - profile of Existing ground. 

Strange enough is that it does so after station 181+115 approximately. 

Attached are some pictures of the differences in elevations, as well as the dwg file itself.. 
Elevation in layout plan, as Surfaces are correct, as well as the CrossSection Views. 
The only issue is with ProfileView, and the level calculated in the bands there.

I have recreated the terrain in new drawing (from 3D faces). 
Copy-pasted the Alignment (the landXML) bring some problem in the Alignment. 

Quite surprised to see the same issue. 

I am curious - can it be from the Civil Version (2022)? I updated it quite recently. 
Totally different values as elevations when compared Layout (surface) to Surface Profile. 
Please someone - I don't have an idea what is going on here.. even more interesting is the fact that the problems starts from station 181+115 approx.. 
Thanks in advance!

I am totally confused.
Seems like that the Profile creation is totally wrong. Can not calculate properly from the ALignment. 
Attached is the proof. The profile calculated, compared to the CYAN line, part of the alignment, raised to the same surface, looks totally different. And as in the 1st picture, these two kinks does not exist in reality. 

What could be the cause of this - not proper calculation of Surface profile? 
Unfortunatelly i have a deadline, and this project is quite important for me, and because of this problem i have no idea how to proceed..

Found myself a solution. 
I moved one of the Alignment points with 1mm (near the place where it does not calculate properly-to force another calculation) and - voila. 
It calculates the Profile correctly.. 
Strange issue, strange..
