Why is the engine of my BMW 5 Series making a loud screeching noise?

I recently noticed that my BMW 5 Series is making a loud screeching noise whenever I accelerate. It started suddenly and it seems to be coming from the engine. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

It is possible that the serpentine belt in your engine is worn out and needs to be replaced. This can cause a screeching noise when the belt slips against the pulley while the engine is running. It is important to have this fixed as soon as possible as a worn out belt can cause damage to other parts in the engine.

Another possible cause could be a faulty tensioner pulley that is not keeping the belt taut. This can also cause the belt to slip and make a screeching noise. You will need to have the tensioner pulley checked and replaced if necessary.
