Sump Bolt Torque?

Hi,

Can anyone tell me the right torque setting for the oil drain Sump Bolt?

I'm doing an oil change and want to be sure about the torque setting for this drain bolt.

Thanks,

G.

If Its A Diesel Its 30nm Mate U Will Need To Use A New Plug Tho Its Only About 90p Worth It Tho, Better To Get Car Up On Ramps As The Jacking Up Of The Car Is Dodgy

Haynes manual for Golf&Bora says 30Nm/22lbf ft for 1.4 1.6 and 2.0 litres engine. And 40Nm/30 lbf ft for 1.8 litre engine.
