Well I found out what the noise was from the Patrol on my trip to and from Rockhampton for

Thankfully it didn't let go and got me home.

The tensioner collapsed and failed and was letting the belt jump considerably. Good thing I have replaced this before so it made for an easy job. Although I had to cut the belt because the tensioner failed completely and couldn't be moved the normal way.
