Sorry, way too many colloquial words.
As the bushings wear out, they start to make noise as the materials that the pulleys ride on shear. Most of these have no real bushing just the aluminum shafts the steel/aluminum (alloy) pulley spins on. So the wear can be way too fast as compared to age or they last FOREVER. A shot of WD-40 or any brand of lube/penetrating oil will stop the noise dead for 1-30 days until it washes out. Once you take the tension off the pulley by removing the belt, the offending pulley usually shows up as the one you can wiggle on its shaft. This play causes the pulley to dig into the shaft accelerating the noise and wear. Replacement of the offending part(s) is the only cure....
