Hi,
I have just purchased a stunning black 2006 SL350 and I am now becoming immersed in the battle against roof leaks and creaks armed with a bottle of Krytox and my index finger thanks to the numerous helpful postings on this forum.
However, I do a question if I may? While topping up the windscreen washer bottle last night I noticed a thin rubber tube like a breather pipe clipped inside the filler which appears not to be connected to anything down below. Is this correct or should it be fitted onto something down below?
If so, then I assume I will need to look at removing the driver side front wheel and wheel arch liner to get access to the washer bottle and clip the tube back onto whatever it should attach to?
Many thanks for any helpful replies. I am hoping that I am not the first person this has happened to.
