Could it be a condensate tube for the air conditioner? One tube drains water from the evaporator.

Is the end that is connected hooked up to a switching valve? There should be a switching valve near the corner marker as you described.

A switching valve would also have an electrical connector plugged into it, and probably another vacuum line connected to it too (in case you wouldnt recognize a switching valve)

If it IS hooked up to a switching valve, then YES, you need to find out where the disconnected end goes.

There should be a vacuum routing diagram sticker somewhere on your upper core support for refrence.

Hope that helps..

i believe that is the vacuum tube for the headlight level adjuster. My european model has the same color tube and it plugged in to the headlight casing. do you have a wheel button next to your headlight switch? that should be the headlight level adjuster. thx
