Any suggestions for the parts in my wheel wearing out?

Video to better hear what the problem is:

After setting up my Thrustmaster T150 yesterday after quite some time of not using it I heard a sound I never have. When I take sharp turns or there's some resistance going on in the wheel from force feedback, you can hear the pulley or whatever it is inside making noises. Performance is still A1 no issues there but I can tell it might be from age as I've had it since 2017. I would hate to have to get a new one as money's tight right now & it holds so much sentimental value since I have a beautiful memory of opening it in front of my mom with one of my first pay cheques and us getting so excited about it, she's not around anymore. Do you guys have any ideas on tightening up the systems in there? Thanks for reading and let me know if you can think of something.
 
Open it up and have a look. Perhaps a belt needs tensioning or replacing? Open it up and post some pics and videos on here for people to assist with.
