Knowledge is infinite...

Warped rorots might do not exists....
Audi brake pads could come from different manufacturers..
There must be a difference between a rotor for $80 and a rotor for $300..

There is an article that could make a good read:

I don't know what kind of pads are on the car, I just bought this car about 2 months ago and had been fixing other problems (like the ABS module needed to be rebuilt and 10 DTC's) now I'm on the brakes. The pads are still pretty thick so I left them on the car but I did turn the front rotors but the shake is still there.
