There's a lot to be said about replacing the solid belts with linked belt like this:https://www.durabelt.com/linkedvbeltinfo.php

The linked belts are better damped so vibrate less than a normal V belt . Notched (timing) belts can be noisy .

PekkaNF:
This is cogged V-belt



I agree timing belts can whine at high speed.

PekkaNF:
Got the belts and changed them, sounds whole lot better and smoother.

Got those: XPA 882 and XPA 1030 Optibelt Super X-Power belts, they are not exactly the same nominal size, althogether nominally about 8 mm longer. They are easier to change speeds than original. Have to see if I need to change one shorter when they start to wear.

So far looks good.
