For a 2001 S80 2.9 6 cyl. (non-turbo):

Looks like I have an oil leak at the seal (or is it 2 seals?) on the oil trap. Wanted to know what your experience was in removing it. Looks like you have to remove the AC compressor, alternator, PS pump, and the large accessory bracket that holds those 3 things on because you can't remove the passenger side bolt on the oil trap because it is blocked by the accessory bracket. Looks like it is a lot of work just to get to that one bolt!

Has anyone done this job? Did you have to remove all that stuff or is there another way? Are there one or two seals on the oil trap?

Any input appreciated...thanks.
