# 21257516 Bracket | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine support bracket used in the air-filter and inlet-silencer assembly of Volvo Penta D11 IPS engines.

## 🚤 Compatibility

Typically suits:

-   Volvo Penta D11A-C MP
-   Volvo Penta D11A-D MP
-   Volvo Penta D11A-E MP
-   Volvo Penta D11A-C (IPS)

-   **Engine Family:** D

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Genuine Volvo Penta air-intake bracket
-   Supports air-filter or sound-trap components
-   Correct D11 IPS mounting geometry
-   Helps maintain intake alignment
-   Reduces vibration loading on intake ducting

## 🔌 Function

The bracket supports the intake housing or sound-control component and maintains correct alignment with the engine air inlet.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Cracks
-   Bent mounting points
-   Loose air-filter housing
-   Intake-component vibration
-   Fretting around bolt holes
-   Air-intake components contacting nearby equipment

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Offer the bracket up and start every fastener by hand before tightening any of them, so the component is not pulled into a strained position
-   Check the mating faces are clean, flat and free of corrosion scale — a bracket that does not sit flat will work loose and let the component move
-   Renew self-locking nuts, lock washers, tab washers or thread-locking compound wherever the original assembly used them, and tighten to the figure given in the workshop manual for your engine
-   Where the bracket carries a rubber mount or bush, renew that at the same time rather than reusing a perished one
-   On brackets in the inlet and exhaust area, never force alignment to make the holes line up — cure the misalignment at its source, or the bracket and the component it holds will both crack
