What part # is this? Help! hard plumming vacuum line?

235Dude · 10-10-2010, 09:16 PM

While I was looking in the engine bay I noticed this part circled was loose. There is a little plastic ring connector that seems to have snapped in half.

Does anyone know what this is and the part number? I read somewhere it might be the hard plumming vacuum line but I couldnt find it on getbmwparts.com. I added some electrical tape for now to seal it.

That piece looks to be heat fitted ..I would think getting that joint hot and then pulling it off...

I think it should be fine, some of these hair dryers are quite hot....Just make sure to pull it off without cracking the tubing or yanking it too hard..

Just got done doing this the part I ordered was the whole pipe that conects to the 90 degree bend that is located under the drivers side plastic cover where their are the liquid reservoirs...either Way no need for a heat gun there is a small white piece that can be pushed in releasing the pipe really easy once you know what you are looking for thanks everyone for there help
