Exactly what happened with my M3. If it sat in really, really cold temps and then I started it, I'd get a screech for about 1-2 seconds, maybe a second one as well. Didn't end up doing anything about it as the shop foreman, who I trust a lot with my cars, said don't worry about it, there was nothing they could do. I'm almost positive it was the belt tensioners engaging.

I've had this happen before, very sporadically. The dealer wasn't able to diagnose it during two appointments, five months apart. I told them it may be the starter. However, they put in a new battery a couple weeks ago, and I haven't heard it since, despite the freezing weather.

I know these were issues in post 150k M62tu engines, but it was mostly the guides and tensioner itself. Have many gotten past this mark and are there threads linking to such issues?

- mines been replaced from the factory, so that's a plus - I did lifetime alignment through Firestone once I put coilovers on my X5, so I'll do the same on my X5M

- mine leak and for some reason the boot going directly into the turbo's has wobble in it, which I'm trying to diagnose as maybe a missing gasket - what happens when these fail? I LOVE my pano roof so I wanna make sure to replace things before it snowballs into worse

-if you have a leaky CCV you will want that fixed -My clips/rails were broken, but hadnt yet caused an issue with the sunroof open/closing. I assume if it was left though, that eventually the mechanism would get worn and the sunroof would stop working. If that happens, youd likely need a new sunroof mechanism and mounting parts/seals, which is not cheap...the clips/rails however are cheap. apparently sunroof maintenance is specialized so the BMW service center I go to only had one guy certified to work on them. |

I was going to create a whole new thread, but here goes I the meantime...
Forget it, tried to upload pics but hate how this site can't adjust them itself. Here's a link to a folder I created. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/leku8cif4...lbtq2dJha?dl=0
