Orphaned hose while replacing starter - 2002 infinity i35

Asked by Mrweiner Oct 15, 2017 at 07:35 PM about the 2002 INFINITI I35

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Just replaced the starter on my i35 and it appears
that there are two open hoses even though I only
(purposefully) removed one. Any idea what this
hose might be and what it might connect to? I've
got some red spots on my pants that may be from
this, so I'm wondering if it might be transmission
related?

The mystery hose is bottom one I'm pointing to in
the photo.

Alright, it appears to be a breathing tube for the tranny. Supposed to be open-ended -- nothing to worry about. http://www.nissanforums.com/b14-95-99-chassis/168562- transmission-breather.html

I have the same problem. However, transmission fluid leaks from this; nothing to worry about hose. Hot tranny fluid gushes from this hose. So, are you sure about this information about this hose?
