Re: Fuel Warning Light
Ian, this is yet another weird mod.
The diff lock pipes were originally all chassis-mounted steel hoses, with flexible sections at the ends.
Also, there should be two vacuum hoses to the locker. One to lock and one to un-lock...

I must mention, I never traced it. I assumed it was the diff-lock ? It was the only thing that made sense, as I can see no reason for some pipe along the door sill.
I shall remove everything and check again as well as post here. I am now very curious as to why it is there.... It makes no sense....

Re: Fuel Warning Light
Not on the Y60, so I wouldn't think they went backwards on the Y61.
Ian, could it be the rear windscreen's washer (water) line?

Bingo.
I've got a very strong feeling that this is probably it - it also looks the same as the pipes in the front. This will be easy to ascertain, so I'll check and let you know.
I feel like an idiot. Plenty other pipes it could be...

Re: Fuel Warning Light
Ian, these vehicles are simple, and yet incredibly complicated aren't they?
All sorts of pipes and wires running all over the place...

Re: Fuel Warning Light
Cedric,
I will find a way to delete your thanks...
Peter is 100% correct. That weird pipe is the rear window washer... I am a moron....
