I’ve noticed a noisy what seems to be a pulley/bearing issue on my belt. It’s worse on start up but becomes intermittent as the car warms up. The sound is like a grinding sound. Not a screeching sound. I suppose it would be recommended to get this sorted as soon as possible. Saying that a neighbour who knows a lot about cars said he would leave it for now unless it becomes a lot worse. Can anyone advise?
Probe 24v 1996.

The bearing in the accessory pulleys is a replaceable thing. Any bearing wholesaler would have them on the shelf.

Just replace the bearing in the pully.
Knock the old one out, & press the new one in

Also noticed that the top hose from the radiator is deflated but goes back to normal after running.
