n55 new tensioner wobble?

Bought a fresh tensioner from FCP. It has this much wobble not sure if this is normal? No noises or squeaks, belt is very tight. Noticing some wobble in the main pulley damper too.

Sound Up, let me know if anything looks or sounds strange!

Supposedly, it's normal. I got the same wobble after a brand new damper AND belt tensioner on the wife's x3 n55. As long as everything is torqued to spec and the belt is on good, you should be fine.
