Default What is this?
2014 CT F-Sport. New CT owner. Upon checking engine bay I came across this rubber tube sticking out without any thing connected to it. Is this normal, or what?

I guess those hoses go to exhaust heat exchanger, and that's the coolant temperature sensor in the middle (which controls the exchanger). I don't know what that short tube is though.
