Had a squeaking from the front of engine last year so changed the water pump.
Squeaking has returned & is constant.
Replaced all belts/tensioners & cleaned pullies 2 years ago.
Alternator on it's way out? (Red light goes out within 5 secs of starting)

Disco 300 tdi 180k
 
Belt tensioner bearing? there's a guy on ebay sells the replacement bearing.
 
No, it's put a penny piece under the tensioner assembly apparently.

What kind of people do you think we are?!!!!!!:D
 
Is that spend a penny onto the tensioner???
If so I think i'll go for the bearing solution.

No sashtony (is that like swisstony?) I didn't mean spend a penny and I really don't don't want to go there !!!

It has become a well-known fix for squeaking shreaking noises - you put a penny, at 9 'o clock under the tensioner assy which adjusts the alignment and often/usually stops the noise.

PM me if you want more info.

Cheers
Dave
