Hi, I have started the job of replacing my timing chains and I know there are many threads about timing chain replacements but I haven't found one that explains where the bolts are for the AC compressor bracket. I know there are 1 or 2 hidden at the back somewhere but cannot seem to find them. If someone could shed some light on where I should be looking, how many I should be looking and how hard they are to get to that would be much appreciated. Also if anyone has any photos showing where the bolts are that would be even better. (2009 VE LY7 Omega Sportswagon)

Torque the bolts to 58 Nm when you reinstall.

Thanks heaps for that. The bottom rear one I managed to get from underneath the car but can't see the top one. I'll have another go at it on the weekend. Appreciate your help.

You have to remove the idler pulley which then exposes the bolts for the compressor bracket
