A disconnected (what seems to be) bleeder hose above left front shock

[milanko]

Hi,
I'm a new owner of a 2005 Ford Expedition, King Ranch edition. Got it fully inspected prior to the purchase and runs really nice.

I noticed a disconnected hose above front left shock, that just hangs around. As my mechanic haven't found where the hose should have been connected he thinks this it's a differential air bleeder for venting. No suction or air blow noted while engine's running.

Has any of you Expedition enthusiasts experienced something like this?

Thanks in advance.

Is there a similar hose on the other side?

Not that I've noted. Do you think it might be some kind of a vent?

Thank you

looks like an evap vent or fresh air intake

you could always plug it and see if it throws a check engine code if your really curious or just say forget it i mean as long as the truck is runnin good

I traced the same line on my 06, it runs down to the front hubs, I guess its the vac relief for when you engage the 4 wheel drive
