Hi

Been doing all my 'lower' oil's this weekend ( gearbox/axle's/transfer box/Power steering ) and whilst under the driver's side of the engine cover, noticed a tube not connected! Re slid it back on as it's obviously meant to be on the electrical connector but ..... what's it do / for please?
Also noticed it has a very small filter with an arrow pointing 'upwards' so ......anyone?

Thanks :?
