Clicking noise

Hi all,

I have just had a major service on my 1 series 116d (2021). The day after I checked under the car as a cat went under it. Whilst looking my ancillary belt seems to have started to shred.

I have changed the belt and ever since there has been a clicking noise. The tensioner is also going ten to the dozen. I’m not sure if it was there before or not! Has anyone seen/heard this?

Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Forum

    That doesn't look right, was the belt that came off fraying on the inside or outside (very disappointing the garage didn't pick it up) is it catching somewhere I wonder? If changing drive belts I change tensioners and water pump while I am in there. Never don it on a 116d though

    Cheers Dave, it appeared to have frayed on the outside.

    I have ordered a new tensioner and will fit. I think it might be something to do with the pulley sticking.

    In hindsight I should have done the lot at the time I replaced the belt. I think I was too miffed that the garage didn’t notice it on a major service!

    thanks for your help
