    It's not leaking anything, is it? Check oil levels and coolant levels just to be sure.

    If not, I think it's a breather line from the crankcase. I'm not 100% sure on this. I'd get it fixed. It probably won't cost much.

    If it's what I think it is, then it basically is causing a vac leak.

    EDIT: Do you have rough idle?

    i dont believe it has any fluids in it i think it is a breather and you might have a vacum leak, do you notice and loss in power or boost issues, are you reading your boost gauge, do you have a boost gauge. replace the hose asap its prolly a cheap part and will only put a crack in your wallet and not a dent.

    No, nothing leaks out, just seems like air. I do have a rough idle. (Good call DDQ) No boost gauge as of yet. Also the engine check light is on. Where can i get this part from? Thanks!

    If it is just a hose, you can pick some up at the dealership. It is kind of expensive I think. (Like $8 a foot...)
