possible belt noise. Does it happen with A/C on? Also have the bearings checked on the idlers and tensioner for the belt system. Ive had a 03 bmw 325i do something very similar. Let me know I am super curious if that is it

may be you should make a diagnostic and the tool Rotunda Dealer IDS may can help you

Google the owners manual I'm sure. You'll find it

Check the battery positive terminal it might be open. If the vehicle was in a accidents terminal might need to snap back into place or replace it if it's open

It sounds like a power steering pump problem. If you get low on power steering fluid the power steering pump will have a loud whining sound. The upper and lower control arm bushings will make a squeaking sound. And they would only make it when turning. I am sure that your power steering fluid is low.

it may be possible that your heater core was faulty and some has by passed it. open hood and check for incoming and outgoing heater hoses into firewall(dash of car). it is also possible that the heater core is plugged, try getting your cooling system flushed

White smoke means your buring oil

The easiest way to do this would be just to check all the fuses. You can do this by pulling each one out and inspecting for burn marks and breaks on the inside. If you would, next time state the car model. Good luck.

You can't remove the front headrests from 2009 or later BMW's without first disconnecting internal wiring that runs inside 1 of the posts for each headrest to the inside the seat. This wiring is part of the Active Restraint Safety System that was new for 2009.

If you force it and break the wire you will at a minimum need to spend about $300 at the dealer to resplice the wire by taking the back off the seat.

your fan either isnt working or going out

I would look in the owner manual first for the answer,then go to the dealership.... you are still under warranty.

I would check your tps(Throttle positioning sensor) to see if its bad. That's what it sounds like.

Hi,
If you are referring to the coolant thermostat, though I'm not familiar with your model, basically thermostats are located in a housing on the engine where the top radiator hose connects to that housing. For the most part, they are pretty easy to replace. If you have an overheating problem with your car, I hope this fixes it.

You can wax it all you want, Just wash it at the car wash or with dawn dish soap to remove any other waxes already on the car.

Hi Air flow sensor could be a problem. Every time EML comes on the car computer will put the system into limp mode. To avoid any further damage to the engine. once switch off, isolated and re-start will re-run the program and clear it temporary. Ideally you need to get the car plugged in to a Diagnostic computer and see what fault code are stored. Thanks

no , neither am I no manufacturer will release a substandard vehicle check for broken exhaust pipe flex section near the manifold and a failing cat converter blocking the exhaust system
