K2 Plus - Weird noises along Y axis

Hi,

I've noticed that when the printhead moves quickly along the Y axis, it often makes a strange, "plastic" noise. Honestly, I don't know what to compare it to. I hope the video makes it clear. To me, the sound seems to be coming from the guides/belts, but I'm not sure. It only happens along the Y axis and doesn't affect print quality. However, it's the most audible sound from the printer, higher in pitch than the humming of the fans.

All guides are regularly cleaned and lubricated.

Any ideas where these noises are coming from and how to quiet them down?
