Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all After removing the air box on my 2002 C4 Tiptronic, I noticed this connector on the rear drivers side of the engine bay. Any ideas on what it's for? Cheers :thumb:

POST 2Original post

I remember seeing one on my car and thinking that it looked like some sort of diagnostic connector. I'll take a look on the wiring diagram to confirm if nobody knows for sure. MC

POST 3Original post

just a thought , it wouldn't be the part you disconnect to keep your PSE always on loud would it :?:

POST 4Original post

This has come up in the past. Try the search function as I'm sure the mystery was solved.

POST 5Original post

IIRC - its the diagnostic port that allows the feds to check that all of the emissions stuff is working within parameters in California ....... don't worry about it..... its of no use/interest to us in the UK!

POST 7Original post

I believe it to be this..... Some sort of diagnostics for the EGR. MC

POST 9Original post

God, this forum is flamin' good at times, isn't it....?? Osh
