There is a lot a of factors that go into that decision so it would be difficult to give you a clear answer. If your wondering if you absolutely need to change the rotors then you need to get them mic'ed and if possible turned. You should be good to go after that.
If you don't mind email me with what your planning on doing then I could give you a much clearer answer. violatedzero@gmail.com
Where do you recommending sourcing parts to do this yourself? I've been told and read that one should change the rotors along with the pads especially for the first change due to the softer or thinner rotor used by Audi. The concern being that new pads will excessively wear the old rotor. Any comments on advice on this? Thanks -bulls
Very useful actually. I have a Haynes manual that was slightly useful, but I couldn't finish the project because it was Sunday and I couldn't get my rotors turned that day. Going to have to do it Friday or Saturday. It answered a few questions I had. I'm comfortable doing brakes but on the Audi it's a wee bit different as far as some smaller details are concerned. So TY.

Question. Once your replace the front pads, will the driver information light on the dashboard go out automatically?

It should, If it doesn't try holding the odometer reset (0.00) then turn the key to the first position and then press the service button.
