Weird sounds when extruder is moving along X axis

Hi guys.

Our 3D printer makes weird noises when printing. Printer started doing it recently, not from the beginning, so I checked every screw and I thightened them but the sound persist. Don't know what could cause it? Here is the video, in video I manually changes position of extruder so that is the sound in the backgroud, but in the foreground it makes sometimes that click sound.

Printer is MK3S

This sound is only heard on X axis moves when not extruding?

You centred the image on the motor side, are you sure the sound comes from here?

I suspect the X axis idler bearing but I cannot rule out a linear bearing from the video, listen very carefully; where exactly is the sound coming from?

Cheerio,
