It's possible that the noise is coming from the engine belt or one of the pulleys. It could be due to wear and tear or a loose component. I would recommend bringing your car to a BMW dealership or mechanic to get it checked out.

Another potential cause could be a faulty water pump. This can also make a squealing noise when it's malfunctioning. You may notice your engine temperature rising or your car overheating as well. It's best to get it looked at as soon as possible to prevent any further damage.

Make sure to also check your air conditioning system. A loose or damaged compressor can also produce a high-pitched noise. It's important to get this fixed as it could lead to further issues with your AC.
