Help identify engine noise---Eurocharge Install
Asking for a friend who had his 2005 E55 develop this noise on an out of town trip. The car has following mods done at one of the EC facilities
EC tuning
Johnson IC pump,
large HE,
77 mm pulley, pulley and belt wrap kit
Eurocharge Cincinnati did the install about 5 months ago and he has put on roughly 400-500 miles since then
Help greatly appreciated

Can you explain what that would rule out?
Also he spent close to $5000 on this install and has tried contacting the EC Cincinnati several times about it and my guess is they don't give a ucfk about it and have not responded to any of his correspondence
After seeing their install on his car, I have changed my mind taking my 2014 E63s to them, wisely so.

Man....you guys need to really do some research if you want to own and mod one of these cars.
With that being said it will rule out anything spinning in the front of the engine, water pump, supercharger including pulley bearings and case rear bearings,idler pulleys and so on.
This would be the most basic and easy move to make as a first thing to do. Is there oil in it ???
If the noise is still there than it's internal in the engine...broken piston, rod bearing knock who knows but if your real lucky it's a bearing in a pulley.
