Yeah. I am taking my chances and betting on the tensioner. I have ordered a new one which I get today! I talked to a former BMW mechanic who say that theese are prone to fail when milage becomes high. Mine is at 200.000km / 125.000 miles. So I will change it later and report back/ update thread! .. Im crossing my fingers!
thanks for reading..
