R56 AC Suction Line
AC Suction Line
I was under my car this evening checking on a rattle I heard on my drive home and I found something. There is rubbing marks on my air conditioning suction line (low side) where it passes some sort of suspension/steering rod that loops into the wheel well and up to the shock, and a small notch on the bottom of the air conditioning suction line where it passes over my axle. I suspect the hanger that is suppose to keep this hose up and away from these parts has failed, allowing the hose to hang down and rub. I looked at the parts online and there is a hangar, but the diagrams I've seen don't make it clear where this hangar is suppose to attach to the car.
Does anyone have any experience with this?

No, but most of the plastic retainers for such can break / fall off.
Have any images in relation to where you rubbing is occurring?
From there, any one of us can look under our vehicle to compare and tell you where the OEM hangers are meant to be placed.

Nope, no images. It was too dark and there wasn't enough clearance. I took it into the shop, we will see what they say when they get a chance to look at it.
Ok, the shop just called an apparently the lower passenger side engine mount (part #22116778645) failed. How the hell is that possible? Is that even possible? The engine doesn't look to be sitting funny in the car.
