05 1.4HDi Auxillary belt tensioner rattle - joiner88
I have just had my 206 1.4HDi serviced at 60000 miles including an auxillary belt change as there was a rattle from the offside of the engine. The technician was going to change the belt tensioner and idler but said he checked them with a stethascope and the rattle was not coming from either.
The rattle now seems worse and the technician said i need to take the car to the main dealer as the noise is coming from inside the engine.
Has anyone had any experience of this problem. I am hoping to avoid a costly main dealer bill.
Thanks
