Default Axle bolts removal tool size?

Does anyone know the size of the tool to remove the axle from the tranny side? I know it's a triple square, but what size?

for the 2.7T motor

Default I don't think it's a 10mm

I have a 8mm and it's no where near the right size so I doubt it's a 10mm.

The right size is almost as thick as a finger, looking from under the car.

Would it be one of those "XZN M10" size tools?

Default 10mm it is! I'll go get one. Same size for...

2001 allroad with 2.7T Tip?

So far I like this forum better than the allroad forum, seems like there's more people here that work on their cars. Thanks!!!

I already have a 17mm hex from my motorcycle tools.

Now who can tell me where I can find a good deal on that 10mm Triple Square.

THANKS!!!
