Does anyone know the correct cylinder head torque and tightening sequence for a 1995 2.6 V6 A6?

I have a leaking cylinder head gasket and Audi won't tell me the torque settings and a manual costs over £100.

Can anyone help please?

Here a small drawing.
First: to tighten to 6 daN.m (1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8)
Secondly. a half turn (180°) (1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8)
Or:
First: to tighten to 6 daN.m (1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8)
Secondly: a quarter of turn (90°) (1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8)
Thirdly: still a quarter of turn (90°) (1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8)

Thank you for the information. I've done the job now. I found a channel between one of the waterways and the middle cylinder on the L.H. side cylinder head. I had the head skimmed and then re-assembled it. Seems to have solved the problem.
