That says definitely leave it on. Then, I've read posts on this forum and others that said remove it. Then, others don't mention it at all...

If you can chime in with an answer and explain why, I would greatly appreciate it, and I'm sure others would as well. Thanks!
I kept the white retainer tab. It is included if you purchased Volvo part.
