What is this on the side of the Air Filter Box?
Just changed the Air Filter on my 2006 XJ8L and noticed an attachment on the side of the Air Filter plastic housing (box).
See pic 1 the attachment is ringed in red. Pic 2 Close up of attachment.
On inspection it would seem that an electrical connection could/should go into the back of this attachment- but I do not see any wires anywhere that could plug into it. The back of the attachment is ringed in red in pic 3.
Does any body know what it is? And/or what function it performs
BTW all functions on the car work and no codes show

Thanks for the information.
However the box housing the air filter does not have an extra air flap, nor is there an electrical wire to plug into the actuator.
Are there some X350 models that do have the "extra air" feature and some that do not? Do all air filter boxes have the plug for the actuator whether or not extra air is fitted?
My car is a normally asperated XJ8 L, and it does not seem to have "extra air"
Thanks
