[QUOTE=andrewwynn;1207344]take your belt off and run the engine after it’s warmed up of course.
That's a pretty ingenious diagnostic hack... I think I would need to be able to drive it at minimum 20 mins even if I take the belt off warm to convince myself the noise is/isn't there. Will an 18 year old X5 run for 20 mins in triple digit Texas summer heat w/ no belt?

Was my dad's last car. He was a master mechanic w/ a successful Euro repair shop in Dallas. In his honor, I plan on running this thing 'til the wheels fall off.
