Lasy monday i had a problem with my car , i was driving calmly then sudenly a weird noise came from outside , i pop the hood and i notice that it was smelling like something had burn , i look and i saw that piece (i dont know what's the name in english) , in the picture , Number 1 , pulley or something , i dont know . It was broken , and it was standing on the shield above the engine . Guys at BMW said that it's normal to broken at this range , but it's normal that one piece could broken off just like that? It's just not sound like BMW
