Default Tensioner Pulley

So I found I had a small tick tick click type of noise coming from the engine bay this morning I am thinking that it might be from the aux belt tensioner any other things that i might need to check before I have to go to a mechanic.
TD5 Engine 110,000 on the clock.
Thanks Adam

I think you hit it right on. Had the same thing last year and it was the aux belt tensioner pully that was cracked. Simple fix for an ugly noise, once they actually sent the right part!

I have to say it's a bit rough what LR charge for the replacement part glad I went to a bearing shop after getting a price from the dealer. They were able to split the pulley replace the bearing but it back together for $10 while LR wanted to replace the entire belt tensioner assembly they were unable to replace just the pulley. Is there a part number for just the pulley or is it true they only replace the entire thing?
