Small Pipe Right Hand Side of the Engine Block

Morning. I was doing some poking around in the engine bay last night and found a small almost hook shaped plastic pipe sticking out from the cover of the engine on the right hand side. The other end appeared to vanish down to the underneath of the Block.

Anyone know what it is?

Also, still going on about my TV issue. Could it be battery related? does the TV need more oomph than the DAB etc??

Thanks again.

i'm not familiar with your model, but range rovers have some breather pipes fitted, to the axles and i think gearbox, and starter motor, they are black or white, and made of stiff nylon, and have a rounded end around 2 inches? to allow air to exit or enter when said items warm up, but (hopefully) not let in water when wading etc. Hence they hieght, and safe position,at rear etc.

Ace thanks! I didn't look like it should be connected to anything but thought I better check!

No they just vent to the air. On the Range Rover's they're raised right up, so that if you go and drive through a flood (wading) the water doesn't get into them.

Sounds line the transfer box vent, mine wee'd a bit after playing up the woods! Had to follow it back down to see where it went, I extended mine upwards a tad so it drops back into box rather than drips on my rocker cover.. 2003 4.4 Adriatic Blue FF
