y-axis belt rubs against belt-idler side

I bought a used MINI and found out that the y-axis makes some squeaky noises, when the table is close to the front. Apparently the belt rubs against one of the sides of the belt-idler. I already loosened the belt in the front and tried to re-align it, but if I move the y-axis one time from back to front, the belt is again in that position:

Is there any problem with that, other than being annoying?
I think the best would be to do this step again: https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/2-yz-axis-assembly_196824#197994 and align everything again? Or is there something else I could do?

Maybe I went a bit over the top, but I ordered new bearings and replaced all of them on the X and Y axis. By doing that I also had to adjust the belts and the printer is now as silent as a new one 😉
