If you want cheap replacements then ring about the main suplpier options. If your after something good though then EBC regularly comes up as recommended.

I replaced mine with EBC discs and pads. Very happy with them. Much more bite than before. Still bending them in too. Just done 300 miles and getting better ;)

I always use these guys, http://www.brakeparts.co.uk
I just replaced the 4 front pads and brake disks on my A4 3.0 quattro for about 90 quid, they come with the sensors etc. braking feels better than b4 I replaced ( probably cos the previous audi dealer that had replaced pads had mashed the springs that go in the piston and all in all made a hash of the job) The pads brand are mintex which are a well known OE manufacturer and have worked well in my old 350Z and clio 182 so should be fine in an A4..

OEM (original equipment manufacturer) pads from GSF or VAG Parts - see our Supporting Companies section for more details.

Or as has been said already, if you want to go aftermarket, EBC pads - I got mine (greenstuff pads) from GSF before they were a part of our forum - I could have saved a few quid :(
