4.8isX5 is on a distinguished road
Exclamation Idler/ "Deflection pulley" broke off yesterday

So.. left my original post at the bottom but documenting this in case anyone on here runs into the same issue. Looks like the bearings seized up.










Found the belt and pulley i needed on advance auto's website. Store pickup available too so no wait for shipping, picking it up today. Cost was around 50 with belt and pulley + 20 off coupon code. $30 fix.

Just started my car about to go to gym, its cold here but it is garage kept....


Fired it up remote start came out about 30 sec later...

What is this noise and smelled weird in engine bay too.... I shut it off after this vid..



Noise X5 - YouTube


I looked up a quick vid n62 chain noise which i guess is what it sounds like and comments said tensioner and some said they replaced a/c and fixed...

For lack of better words am i fked or not.
