Hi Everyone,

I’m trying to find the torque setting for the bolts that hold the alternator/pas pump/ac compressor bracket to the engine block.

(Car is a 2011 sd4 hse and I think there’s 8 or 9 bolts that go through the bracket)

I’ve been able to find the torque spec for each of the individual components it supports, but not for the bolts that hold the bracket to the block.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My old foreman in the garage used to say the length of the standard spanner gives you a rough idea ,ie big long spanner..more torque than a short spanner!

I wouldn't bother with torque settings for low importance items like that. Absolutely essential for big end cap bolts, main bearing cap bolts, and flywheel bolts, but for brackets and stuff, the length of the spanner gives a good clue as to how tight they need to be. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate.
