Maxyboy Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 When i was giving my car a valet, i had the wheels off and behind the rear offside arch liner there was a clear rubber hose dangling just below the bottom lip of the liner. Does anyone have any idea of what this maybe or is my car about to dismantle itself? Ps. Here's a pic of the fella, as its taken me a year to work out how to show a picture, and probably another to show it not as an attachment.

Rachel Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 Water drainage for the a/c maybe (or sunroof if you have one)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 Does the Mk5 have some sort of air valve to exit fuel fumes on a very warm day. Just thinking that the fuel filler is just above the area you mention. Rachel- there isn't a SR on the posted picture, unless it's been painted blue.

Maxyboy Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 A breather for the fuel kinda makes sense. Your right as it is tha same area as the fuel filler/tank. It does seem like a overflow or vent for something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mook Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 If it's clear plastic, on the rear offside, it'll be the overflow pipe from the fuel filler. Nothing to worry about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
