POP QUIZ! what's this?

///Matt · 11-02-2006, 04:44 PM

Who knows what it is??

Richwm · 11-02-2006, 04:45 PM

Where did it come from?

Nikki · 11-02-2006, 04:46 PM

Is it one of the components of the ABS system?

///Matt · 11-02-2006, 04:50 PM

It's out of a BMW, around 2002... it's NOT part of the ABS... though I would like more specific guesses!

Don't worry, the only people I expect to know what this is are people who've worked on it, and people who've seen one at the shop and been like "what does THAT do??"

///Matt · 11-02-2006, 04:56 PM

Ok, let's make it interesting.... I'll give out a prize... I haven't decided yet, but It'll be something fun. You have to guess the specific component name. If you can tell me what it DOES too, i'll be impressed! lol.

And no cheating! asking a tech doesn't count! lol....

Richwm · 11-02-2006, 04:56 PM

Isaiah5411 · 11-02-2006, 05:09 PM

A heater element...for heated seats??? Looks like a miniature of Willy Wonkas Chocolate Factory. I still can't believe Depp did that movie.
