Default Can someone tell me WTF this is?

Just a little background....I was getting ready to remove the tunnel brace on the car since the y-pipe bangs it under acceleration. I noticed this damn tube just kinda sitting there. Its hard to tell from the pics, but it seems to run up and over the bellhousing, but I can't tell where the damn thing leads to. I never saw this on my Camaro (m6) when I had it, maybe its related to the fact that the WS6 is an a4? Help, anyone? ???

Hard to tell from the pics - but it may be your tranny vent tube. Never saw the one on my A4 hanging out and down so far - it is usually attchae with a clip near the end.

That would be why mine isn't that long - I have a Spohn TQ Arm - they must have cut the hose and clipped it further back when they installed it.
