Title: TD5 random wire floating around the engine bay
Post by: spartree on September 18, 2022, 06:47 PM
I was topping up my washer fluid and noticed this wire, not secured to anything, running along the wing and overtop the washer fluid reservoir. Any thoughts on what it is?

It looks like a temperature probe. It is not stock.

That was my first thought as well. The previous owner of this vehicle had wires running everywhere...

I also received a suggestion that it might be the cable for the antenna. Will have another poke around after work.

Antenna cable gets my vote too.
