If it is the bottom pulley a lot change them to the a solid 1 like on the 307s. Have a look at the pulley and see if there is an dust around it and pop the belt off and see how it feels.

its either cambelt scrubbing the casing or a pulley that needs replacing. Had it on mine. Once cambelt was replaced and pulleys replaced it went away!

Get the drivers front jacked up and take the wheel off. Take the arch liner out, then start the car (make sure it's not in gear and the handbrake is on lol) and watch the pulley yourself. If it's knackered you'll see it jumping about and running off-centre.
