Did Valve Cover job, extra clip leftover..??

BeastMode335i · 11-19-2015, 01:32 PM

Anybody happen to know where this clip goes..??? I've tried several lines and little hoses but can't for the life of me remember where it came off of, and I labeled everything except this piece..

Thank you!!

There are hard boost lines that hover over the valve cover.

That clips in underneath the boost lines to protect them from moving and rubbing on valve cover.

It's the 2 boost lines that go towards boost solenoids.

Send a picture when your done and i'll verify if you got it right.

Edit -

Ok so the area highlighted in red box is not the one you have in your hand.

There is a second set further down the line towards the turbo's in line with the coil packs.

Good, you didn't do it right if you don't have extra parts.

The other solution is to trash those hard plastic boost lines and replace them with 3.5mm silicone vacuum lines.
