A brazed heat exchanger (1) suitable for a motor vehicle comprises at
least one manifold (3), to which at least one additional part (5) is
fastened. The at least one additional part (5) has a fork-shaped profile
piece (12), which is adapted to the circumference of the manifold (3),
lies against the circumference of the manifold (3) and can be fixed
thereto by a form locking and/or frictional connection, preferably prior
to brazing.
