Cherokee 2.8 CRD rattle

Hi all, I hope you can help me out here because I'm out of ideas !

I have a Jeep Cherokee 2.8 CRD Limited (2004). Its developed a rattle from the front of the engine, from what i can tell its coming from the drive belt. I was thinking it might be the idle pulley bearings because i have replaced the alternator and the belt itself.

Any ideas ?!

Thanks.

You don't say where you're from, but I'd have to guess you're from Europe. What you're driving is an JK, and you probably won't find a lot of knowledgeable people on this forum in regards to the CRD. I'd suggest http://www.lostkjs.com/ as they have an entire sub section dedicated towards the Liberty (as known in the USA) CRD and have a lot of people that have a ton of knowledge on those things. Good luck!
