Cheaper to buy a new one from a GM dealer. Last I looked (a few years ago) they were under $20.
The part number is engraved on it. |
Well now they are under $30.00.
BRACKET. Air Cleaner Intake. AIR INTAKE SYSTEM made by GM. #15784193 http://www.gmpartsgiant.com/parts/gm...-15784193.html |
I just threw a broken support bracket. The air filter box lay down directly on the engine. The efforts of the rubber tube is sufficient to keep the box on the site.
But! I have to get rid of the oil filler neck. Otherwise, the box can unscrew it (the vibration or displacement of a sharp maneuver). Neck - go away, oil cap directly in to the engine. |
2011 hhr air filter housing
my 2011 hhr broken housing bracket ,my brother in law had a worker at his shop make the 2 ends that bolt on the back of the motor thicker it works but the 2 rubber spacers on the bottom miss the studs on the bracket by about a inch so I put heavy duty snap on fasteners on the bottom of the housing and on the top of the bracket to secure the back of the housing .

Shaking my head over this - the bracket is obviously there for a reason. When the intake housing on the air cleaner cracks, or when the housing breaks as it rattles around on rough roads.............. come on - that's not quite as bad as the idea of saving weight by removing one wheel nut off each corner, but it's close.
You made a comment on another thread which showed a cheap and easy fix. Why not give that a try. |
The reasons they break:
Vibration, like bad motor/trans mounts. Abuse from bad installation. |
