Disconnected hose?

[rodb]

I just changed my oil and I noticed that there is a vacuum hose unhooked at the front of my engine(2002 1.8T). It comes from the underneath left of the engine and runs across the top of the timing belt cover going towards the right side. I tied it to the top rad hose to keep it off my alternator pulley. It is rubber covered with woven fabric. I can't see where it could connect to. Car running fine and no CE light (yet). Any ideas?

your probably thinking of the line coming from the DV

[pondside36]

or the DV Vacuum hose..

Thanks for that picture but it doesn't look like my engine.

You mean coming from the DV underneath? Going to where then?

[Audi Skate Snow]

thats what i said :)

the DV line goes up to the n249 valve, located under your intake manifold.

and if you have an 02 1.8t that is your engine diagram.

[rodb]

OK. I need help then. Can you tell me the number of the line in the diagram?

here is a pic from a4mods.com with the intake manifold off. The hose goes to the bracket that is laying there with the numbers on it.

In the diagram posted above the hose runs off the DV(#21) and connects to your n249 valve(#17).

Thanks guys. I hooked it back up. Does it just slide on with no clamp? Thanks again.

[Audi Skate Snow]

yea, you wont need a clamp or anyhting... just put in on and your good to go :)

[rodb]

Super. Thanks again.

I would put a clamp on it. Or at least a zip tie. If it fell off once, it can do it again if there is nothing holding it on.
