Default drive belt noise 2008 ma mondeo diesel

morning guys,

hoping for a straight forward result from this question.
my 08 diesel mondeo is making a noise from the drive belt or pulleys, i have replaced the tensioner , the other idler puiley, obviously the belt and also have had to replace the alternator. what i have noticed is that the tensioner seems to " move alot " ( dosent stay still " and where the belt comes up around from underneath the a/c compressor it seems to flap or whip on its way back up. i have checked several times to see if the belt is wrong, but it is the correct length.

the funny thing is that if i put a very small amount of water / lubricant on the belt all the noises stop as does the flapping and the tensioner settles down, but return when the belt dries up.

appreciate all answers
thanks

do you mean serpentine belt?

Checked for alignment across all accessories?

Check the Harmonic Balancer too.
