Windshield Washer Array - Pulse Eliminator

[robbief00]

I was washing my windshield and noticed the windshield washer nozzle closest to the driver side has an open hose barb with nothing connected to it. I thought maybe an endcap or other part was missing.

It seems there is supposed to be a "pulse eliminator" connected here. Does anybody know what this does? Can somebody take a look at your F15 X5 and confirm this part should be present? Perhaps it is some kind of option that is not on all X5's.

I had to replace my nozzle array recently due to blocked nozzles. I added the pulse eliminator (didn't have it previously) but notice no difference with or without it fitted. Only £8, so can't be much more than a plastic plug at BMW prices

Thanks all. Sounds like I have nothing missing and that pulse eliminator is just an option.
