As above really, rubber hose on the top half of the airbox below the AAP sensor, runs over to the solenoids on the front left of the engine bay.

What is it/what is it used for?

Cheers

@Tim4x4


Would that not be going to the turbo wastgate modulator? which as his is a fender I am not sure he has. @bankz5152 says his pipe goes to solenoids on the other side of the engine. Only thing on mine is a small diameter connector tube ( part of the airbox) approx 20mm long from the airbox just below and to the front of the AAP, but it does not have anything attached to it. This is on a D2 TD5 15P 03MY.

Cheers

To be more clear, it's nr 22, a ventilation hose as the modulators need that in order to release some vacuum supplied to the EGR and ILT valves during modulation and as vacuum release means sucction the air must be filtered..irf the EGR was bypassed this one can be binned and the port on the airbox blanked with rubber

Yes, you can also bin the whole modulator cos if it's plugged in it puts unnecessary load on the MAF's circuit and blank where it's pointed in the pic

it acts as an exhaust...... to exhaust air from the egr so the actuators can return home
normally when you purchase a blanking kit ......some kits include 2 rubber plugs one for the Tpeice and the other is for the air box

i must contradict that... it's the other way around as i said before, it lets air in as to reduce the vacuum when it's needed

I stand corrected
its been 3 years since I removed mine I knew it was some sort of vent or exhaust
