badblocks reporting different results each run?

I have a system is showing different badblock reports for each
run? Not sure why a block would show problem on one run, and
then fine on another.
Did a long smartctl selftest on the disk and it complete with no
errors, but smartctl -l error /dev/sda does show ICRC errors.
badblocks doesn't report any errors on partition /dev/sda1 or
/dev/sda3, but on the /dev/sda2 which is the LVM with root and
swap. Also, see badblocks reporting different results on
/dev/dm-0.
Have an image backup of disk from 12/16 that I have restored to a
new disk on another machine, but have not yet had a chance to
try swapping it this system. Full memtest scan shows no errors,
and disk is only about 1 year old (if memory servers). 1T disk.
Suggestions on other testing that might be done, or why
badblocks would be reporting various errors.
Thanks.
