Started stripping off the other side of the car today it's alot easyier with the front clam off

and I found a length of clear 8mm O/D 6mm I/D plastic tube in the rearward lower wishbone chassis tube it has a 90 degree elbow on one end and I have no idea what it is and what it is supposed to connect to
any idea's ? if I can find the camera I will take a picture although it will be a bit boring.

I would think it is either a drain from the bonnet or the thingywidgetdonkeyflange pipe. Refit it or you will be arrested and put on the sex offenders register.
In short, no idea.

Could it be the battery vent ? Total guess . Is the battery in the front on a S1.

Next question what does the battery vent pip plug into (don't say battery) or maybe that should be where. battery is coming out tommorow for a charge, hopefully the alarm wont go bonkers (see other post)
