You are gonna have the 321mm rotors on the front of that car. I got mine from this site. Check the linkhttp://www.germanpartsonline.com/catalog.html

this should help. It will show you how to check the build code.
Good luck

you may or may not have the 321mm, check to make sure that you have the Lucas/Girling HP2 calipers. These calipers use an 8 pad set. Or 4 per caliper. If you do have the HP2 calip[ers then the 321mm are your rotor sizes. Some A6 2.7t came with the ATE brake system which had smaller rotors ( I believe the 312mm)
