Now, the corners are lower than the middle of the bed.
When I print, the hotend isn't touching the glass plate, so there is no adhesion and the prints curl up etc.

Isn't that the point of having an autobed leveling system?

So, your Y-axis components are (from the top down):
> Glass
> Heated Bed
> Aluminum Spacers
> Aluminum Y-Carriage
Right?

Sort of...
You need to have the Y-axis reasonably 'flat' in relation to the other axes. The ABL is meant to measure and compensate for slight differences in the geometry and creates a virtual plane in the software that is flat. During printing, the Z-axis will make adjustments during the motion of the X and Y axes. If not, then either the plane was already completely flat (very unlikely) or the ABL results are not saved to the controller.
