115Nm.

If you are torquing the halfshaft nut remember that the torque value was reduced to 230Nm to help reduce bearing failures (was 350Nm).

Yep, it is 230Nm but I am sure 250Nm would not have hurt it. As I said, they were originally set at 350Nm at the factory, which was nuts.

Edit: Missed your correction, 350Nm would not have helped the bearing life.

Sorry Robbie, been away for a while, off road event with friends last weekend and this one as well.
i replaced both front wheel bearings and the noise is still there. i don't think it is the half shaft, as as per se, it does not hold any heavy load oppose to wheel or diff bearings, but since I have a new one in the attic, I will change it just for a piece of mind.
I drained a front diff oil last week and it looked brand new, magnetic plug with No residue at all, no black gum, usually comes from bearings,... or metal shavings, usually associated with disintegrating gears.
So , I suspect diff bearings on drivers halfshaft side... Big Cry
