This is a thread asking everyone to pitch in by identifying a vacuum hose each, both ends, and what it does, please (pretty please).
While I was researching to help on this thread where the common vacuum leak was being debugged:
- E39 (1997 - 2003) > Rough Idle
The obvious question came up:
Since there are a LOT of vacuum issues (I have one myself), it would be valuable to have a complete outline of all the vacuum hoses.
It can be done. For example, we (the tribal we) did it together for the CCV (outlining all the hoses & all end points, with pictures & diagrams):
- Diagrams & pictures of all points of the E39 crankcase ventilation system (1)
Would people kindly pitch in and help us list all the vacuum hoses in the E39 engine bay?
If each of us pitches in with a picture of the end points & a description of just one vacuum hose in the E39 engine bay, we'd have a useful reference for all!

Then I realized we don't (to my knowledge) have a comprehensive thread containing a diagram and/or a picture identifying ALL the vacuum hoses (and where they go on each end) of the E39.

- Name & description would be nice, including perhaps the function, if known
- Photo or diagram would be nice, particularly if it shows the end points
