Hi all.

I'm trying to find the torque for the six bolts that join driveshaft to gearbox/transfer box. Spline bolts. I have elsawin but can't find this anywhere. All it says is the main hub bolt.
Asked at audi today but they weren't very helpful either.

Depending on the size of the wrench one might be tighter than the other so would like to get this right
