Other than saying a prayer to the autobahn gods - best next step.
Start with replacing the coolant pump and gasket. Or take it to the dealer and hope for the best.
btw - on another forum I found the same problem. Some noise at start up, the pulley coming loose and steam from vents with no overheating warning lights.
