New tensioner has been fitted, the noise has now stopped! Thanks for coming back to me.

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

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. IMG_6285.mov
