Question Questions about Engine?

I posted SEVERAL pictures [http://www.318ti.org/gallery/showpho...=2228&cat=629] that have a red question mark? on a part under my hood. If you can please let me know what that part is and what it does that would be awesome! When you look at the picture I left a link to my e-mail address or you can send me one here does not matter.

Thanks,
Mothman

You have most of the engine sensors, power steering reservoir, wiring harness and other level and pressure sensors marked.

You don't need us, you need a manual! Check at Borders or whatever book store you have near you and check that. One part? no problem. Every part under the hood? Be reasonable!

That's the brake fluid reservoir, PS is down by the radiator.

yeah ... it's like every possible thing in the engine bay

check your manual for one, then the bentley and/or haynes as that should cover most/all of them.

Thumbs up Thanks!

Thanks for the info gents/gals, and THANK YOU to all who sent me e-mails with lables on the items. It helped out ALOT!!!!!

I mean this in a funny way! {If I had the manual or repair book, I would have used it. }

As I thought, there are certain people on this web site, who had the same problem with the parts I had a ? marks, and sent me an e-mail labeling the parts; some even put types of problems they had with it.

So as a straving college student, living on my own; I used a resource I had, the knowledge and kindness of others willing to help me out, So I could use the counseling area on campus and print out a parts ID for myself.

Once again Thank You All!

Mothman
