Abstract

The invention concerns a heat exchanger assembly for a motor vehicle comprising a main exchanger with a body mounted between two manifolds, whereto is assembled at least a secondary exchanger mounted between two manifolds such that a common air stream (F) can pass through the respective exchanger bodies. Each of the main exchanger manifolds is provided, at one end, with a projecting base forming a housing for a pin of the second exchanger, and at another end, with a projecting lug whereon can be locked a clip removably fitted on the secondary exchanger. Another secondary exchanger can be assembled in the same manner on the secondary exchanger.
