I don't know which part it is specifically on the e46, but it sounds like the bearing on an idler, tensioner, or possibly a driven accessory.
The problem with driving it is if something does seize and the belt breaks at high rpm, it can grenade other stuff like the cooling reservoir, fan, radiator, or even put dimples in the hood.

Either way look into doing the electrical fan mod
Going to pick up idler pulley and pulley tht goes on hydraulic tensioner...also the mechanical ac tensioner...will replace them this afternoon.
Removed the bolts and checked the numbers. Here is a picture! Based on the BT logo I assume I have it! I also assume that PK: 9950 is my passcode? How do I connect it to my phone then?Quote:

You know that sneezing man button on your steering wheel?Quote:

It should say BT PAIRING on your radio display at that point. Pull out your phone and make sure bluetooth is on then search for devices like you would connect to anything else. Enter the PK and you're good to go.
Nothing came up when I tried that...
