What is the sensor on the end of the tube on the CCV filter for?

Yeah, I believe Scott is right. In 2015, I believe they got away form that as my 16 does not have that sensor. You looking to do away with it?

Thanks for the responses. The tab that holds the plug is broken. Trying to figure out if it matters if it comes unplugged. It sounds like it doesn't serve any real measurable purpose.

You could take a ziptie to hold it on in place.
