yep 120Nm!!! I use a torque wrench. Or using the wheel brace in the boot - as tight as you can without standing on it!!

Seriously? The Bentley C5 A/S/RS6 (AoA) handbook says 120Nm.
Audi models except RS 2 and RS 4 (type 8D) 120 Nm
RS 2 130 Nm
RS 4 (type 8D) 140 Nm
RS 4 (type 8E) 120 Nm
Q7 160 Nm
PAX wheels 140 Nm
A 6 (security) 140 Nm
A 8 (security) 140 Nm
