What is this? Found under hood
 
:iono:

Opened hood last night just to check for anything strange, found this piece laying over my driver side strut tower.

Can't remember if this is a factory stick for one of the fluids, or if it might have been left in by a service tech (had in to Subaru for oil/rotation a couple weeks ago, haven't looked under hood since)

Says 'Level Gauge', '>PE-LD<' then further down there is an indicator for 'Normal' and 'Low'.
I feel like I saw this in use somewhere in the car previously.

Thanks budskis!

Yup the same one you pour your windshield washer fluid in and yea that appears to be the case.

That's the rip cord, you pull it out real fast to spool up the hidden turbo before a race.

AHHHH Damnit. I spent 10 minutes finding just the right picture and then read the rest of the thread!

My previous car didn't have anything like it.

Funny story, I filled up my fluid before a FL-NC-FL trip last week, got back to FL and opened my hood.. there is this thing sitting on the side of the bay where I put it before.. glad it didn't fall in and get stuck in a belt or something.
