    There is no 'right' values for the auto leveling. It reports what is really there.

    If your nozzle is too close to the glass that is because the Z offset (M565 command) is too low or non-existent in your startup GCode block. Start with M565 Z-1.0 and go more negative to space the nozzle further from the bed on the first layer (Z-1.1 for example) and less negative to make it closer (Z-0.9 for example). Adjust these until it is correct.

    You have to provide the auto leveling with an initial Z offset number. It is normally less than 1mm.
    This is because every printer is slightly different and the printing tolerances are tight and small.

    So use a test model and test the first layers (I included a one layer model for you) until it looks like this:

    That's odd. Mine is running just fine at z-1. Haven't had to tweak it from there
