As an update I was able to get the new version of the data with the correct coordinates by adding a “nocache“ parameter with a unique numeric string, as described here:

unique_numeric_string = str(int(time.time()))
params = {
    "variable": variables,
    "year": str(year),
    "month": [str(month).zfill(2)],
    "day": days,
    "time": [f"{str(h).zfill(2)}:00" for h in range(0, 23 + 1)],
    "area": [ymax, xmin, ymin, xmax],  
    "data_format": "netcdf",
    "download_format": "unarchived",
    “nocache": unique_numeric_string, # <-- add this to invalidate the server cache
}

With this I was able to make sure i have all the new data coordinates regardless of old data cached on the server.
