This noise is common on reno's yaknow.... my megane did it when cambelt was done (yes pulleys as well) it gets quieter after like 6 month. The clio does it too, and ive heard matty J's car, his also does it.
 
My car got the cambelt and aux belts replaced a few months back @ Renault (big ££'s :() and i have no noises like Ecka's which i thought was weird :S

I thought they would both sound the same :S

Or will they be different as i have an extra pulley (A/c) over his cup.

see ive been told this;) spoke to a mechanic friend and he said it might just be because the belt is still tight but with gradually become ever so slightly loose over time and release the pressure on the tensioners etc?
