## 🔌 Function

Holds the radiator or charge-air cooler in its mounting, taking the movement out of the joint so the cooler cannot shift or chafe.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Cooler or radiator that can be moved by hand in its mount
-   Rattling or knocking from the cooler pack
-   Chafed paint or a polished witness mark where the cooler has rubbed
-   Retainer found cracked, bent or with an elongated hole
-   Fixing found slack or missing altogether

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Check the rubber isolators and the cooler's own mounting lugs before condemning the retainer - the retainer is usually the symptom, not the cause
