I've noticed that the Continental brand of belts as I've received from Eeuro over the last few years run VERY smoothly indeed. I've had 'other' brand ones in the past, which despite being new, that were no where as smooth running.
Root source of the problem possibly?
Tensioner is basically a telescoping ali tube with a compression spring for belt tension and a few teaspoons of oil to keep the Gizmo from galling/seizing. Not a lot in there to go wrong imo.
