Default Axle shaft torque specs?

Does anyone have these torque specs for installing axle shaft. I'm looking for the six 'triple square' bolts that go into the trans. as well as the 30mm nut on the hub. TIA

Default This is what I found in Bentley>>>>

6 bolts are 40 nm

30 mm is different. It depends what you have. This is what bentley says. It kind of jumbled up.

Drive axle is bonded to wheel hub not replaced Thoroughly clean adhesive residue from splines of drive axle and wheel hub.

Default personally, for the axle nut (hub) I go with the standard German spec range:

Gutentight.

Seriously, if you're not sure, just tighten the hell out of it. I've yet to break one.
