I came out to my 95TI yesterday to find something hanging down in front of my right front wheel area. Can anyone tell me what this is and where should it be? The number on the part is 8357632.

Theres like this vent that your suppose to attach it to. Look behind the fog light on your passengers side and you'll find it. | | | 06-07-2008, 08:08 PM | #3 | NOBODY F's with the Jesus Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Ventura California Posts: 7,824 | It's your ambient temperature sensor. It's supposed to go in the passenger side brake duct on sport models or next to the foglight on non sport models. It tells the windshield washers when to heat up. __________________ 4 MORE YEARS BABY!!! | | | 06-07-2008, 08:24 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | very interesting! i didnt know what it was either! learn something new everyday! __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 06-07-2008, 08:50 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: LA, Bellflower, CA Posts: 3,613 | Quote: Originally Posted by cooljess76 It tells the windshield washers when to heat up. | does it? hmm.. didnt know. thanks for the info jess. __________________ -Theta Chi- Float like a cadilac, sting like a BIMMER .... my socket is just too thick and won't fit in the hole! damnit!
