Hello.

Short question about the AHU motor. Can anyone please tell me what kind of cable this is? I've circled it in red in the picture. "Mine is in a similar state of decay, as you can see in the picture. Is this a "critical" pipe?"
Thank you for your replies.

Best regards.

Hello,

Unfortunately, I can't quite see where it ends. Is it located on top of the oil filter?

Yes, then it is vital for your turbocharger. It's essentially the main artery that supplies the turbocharger with oil.

If it breaks, your engine will 'bleed' (lose pressure), or the turbocharger might seize up first.

Best regards, Jochen.

In my case, this connection even started to leak slightly because it was deteriorating. I made sure to get a new connection to the warehouse in advance, and then I switched it out during the next major operation.

Oops, sorry.

I wanted to correct the double attachment, but now both of them are gone and I can't undo it.

But the contribution is correct; it's the oil supply line to the turbocharger. She engages the turbocharger at the top, and the oil flows back down into the engine block.

I don't know what the f*ck it was.

hello

No problem about the picture. Thanks for the answers. Can anyone tell me the part number, or how to best obtain this part? Or maybe sand it down and treat it with rust protection?

Best regards.

Abschmirgeln ist so ne Sache:

- wenn es eingebaut ist, kommst du bescheiden dran
- wenn es ausgebaut ist, hast du das Problem, wie du es danach wieder sauber kriegst (innen), denn das Oel dadrin sollte "klinisch rein" sein, denn die Turboladerwelle ist darin schwimmend gelagert.
