Sound is similar to brakes squeel, when going slowly with only a light touch of a brake, but quieter, and coming from a different direction. Like from under the floor, centraly from the back.

It comes in two stages, the first one is slower, like 2-3 times in 2 seconds, then second one with 3-4 faster sqeaks within a second.

All in all it sounds similar to Sqeek.......Squeek.......Squeek.....Squeek..Squeek...Squeek.Squeek.

Then it dissappear and dont come again till the next stand still and moving from it.

Obviousli, it only appears in the 1st gear.

Also, seams it's not present within first 10-15 minutes of driving, after a cold start. Only when the engine gets to a temperature it becomes audiable.

What could that be?

    Checked the net,

    At one place they addressed the sqeak to "cranck pulley".

    At the other, some BMW forum, they addressed it to some sensor rubbing on to discs, with a notion it only happens when brakes are warm.

    Sounds like the alternator pully / belt.

    If you start off by squirting some silicone lubricant in the pulley that might relieve it?
