Sorry if this is a stupid question but what is this pipe for and is it meant to be connected to something as it keeps leaking oil slowly and I'm about to do an oil change but want to make sure this is correct first. Its at the front passenger side just behind where the undertray should be. 

 

 

Thanks guys.

Yeah seems like this could be it, thank you Will double check in a bit and maybe put a catch can or something on the end as its leaving quite a lot of oil on the road where i park up :/ 

personally i dont see whats wrong with where it is as standard .... its not going to harm a diesel in anyway if it burns a little bit of oil off .... probs do it good as it will help lubricate seals etc ....

Yeah true, Just a pain leaving oil everywhere I park up! Its not loads but enough to stain the floor and garage :P

 

Thanks for your quick replies.
