Part arrived yesterday and I installed it today. It seems to be both a filter and a check valve. I suspect more of the latter.
Anyway haven't driven the car yet. Installation was a big PITA involving removal of several plastic panels and the front bumper to get access. These were held in place by plastic push rivets which cracked on removal, and several screws that had to be drilled out because they were rusted and seized. So I need to get some replacements for that to put the nose of the car back together. Removing the bumper revealed some collision damage. Nothing serious, but some sheet metal was pushed out of place. I bent it back to basically where it should have been. The filter is small so I'm not really expecting this will make a lot of difference. On the plus side I was finally able to replace the H3 bulb in the right-hand foglight, which is ridiculously inaccessible for something that needs routine replacement.
