Default Are these the right pads for my car?

I bought these pads a week after I bought the car at the same dealer. When I brought them in with the car about a month ago, the mechanic told me they were the wrong pads. Needless to say I was pissed. Ive been trying to match the part number online but it wont tell me which car modelits specified to. Here is the part # 4b0 698 151k. Thanks to anyone who can help...

Yea when I looked them up, they were for C5 audis, but will they fit the 4.2? Also I have the original Sales Sticker for the car and it says its the high performance HP2 calipers. Will these fit?

HP2 calipers are the same used on the S4, they use a total of eight small brake pads in the front.

Yea thats the same thing I thought. The ones I have from the dealer are just the 4 larger pads, 2 with sensors. These will not fit, correct?

While taking a closer look at the original sales sticker, it says " HP2 4-pad high performance front brakes", so it has to be the 4 pad per rotor setup. Thanks for the help all, now time to go back to the dealer and get the right pads, or my money back.
