Hi

Have a large vacuum pipe coming up up vertically from below the oil dip stick and have no home for it - Anyone know where it goes.

Thanks

Welcome!
Sorry, but that's far too little information for anyone to probably help as there is a myriad of vacuum hoses and such in that area, and without a picture of the under hood condition of your car there's no possible way to guess.
We have an online service manual available here in the stickies at the top of the page which has diagrams of vacuum hoses and such that should help you, or get a picture of your car and the hose and we may be able to help.

That may be the line that attaches to the wastegate if you have a TT. That would be the only thing that is vacuum going in that direction. I think it may first attach to a Y splitter going into 2 smaller hoses, that is why its larger.

Tryt and follow it down, see where it goes.
