V6 Radiator Mounts

[scaredyet]

I have had to change the aircon lines twice and now my condenser. I took the car to the local aircon place and he said your car is missing parts that hold all the radiator, condenser etc together.

I keep hearing rattling and I guess each time I go over a bump it moves and then I ended up splitting the aluminium pipe and now split the condenser.

So my question is what do I need to get to hold the radiator and place and stop it from moving? Bushes, clips etc would anyone have a parts list photo or another image of parts

You need the items shown as 6 and 8 in the attached diagram:

There should be some clips for the top too. They aren’t shown here.
They hold the radiator down.

You can still buy the rubber pads/donuts that the radiator fits on.

Ok sweet Fu. I did see clips but a search never turned anything up. I guess from taking it to different mechanics they probably never put things back where they belong

I definitely don't have the bottom rubber so the pipe coming out the condenser is rrubbing the metal

Thanks @BlackVXGTS

Where do those clips actually go? Do you have a pic of them on the car? Do they just sit on top of the top rubber donuts?

 

[Fu Manchu]

Yes. I’ll get a photo for you when I’m home.

That’s the clip on the top. Remove it with a flat blade screwdriver. Under neath is on rubber donut.

At the bottom is another rubber donut/pad. It sits on a small post.

Only have to lift the radiator a bit to replace them.
