I redid all four on my 2014 A4 allroad. There was. Virtually no brake dust and no squeak or squeal with excellent stopping power.
Replaced the pads on my Audi A4 with powerstop, and they're a big upgrade. Significantly less brake dust from the OEM too.
Paid £420 + £180 fitting for mine front and back on a 2019 Audi A4 by going via Euro Car Parts when the Audi garage quoted £1200!!
OEM VW Battery lasted 7/8 years, despite me nuking it by foolishly leaving my lights on. Sad day.
2015 B9 A4 3.0TDI. Almost at 200k. Original waterpump and no issue in sight.
The part # for the Alternator (Automatic trans) is 6H903016L and it's made by Bosh. [Europaparts](https://parts.audiusa.com/p/Audi_2012_A4-Base-Sedan-20L-AT-Quattro/Alternator/48001649/06H903016L.html) sell's it for $499.95 (OEM).
Mine was clogged in my '02 Audi A4 and instead of doing what you did, I put two hoses on the intake and exhaust of the core, poured CLR down that bitch until it came out the other hose, let it sit for an hour, then rigged up my hose to the intake and blasted all of that CLR and calcium buildup out of there. Had to do it twice, but man having heat again after no heat during a brutal MN winter was a godsend.
IMO, Akebono Ceramics are the shiz. I had some on my Audi A4. Way better than stock, very little dust to clean off, and you can just get them off Amazon for less than OEM.
I just change it every 3k as a maintenance think no one told me to. I'm just afraid of messing up my turbo if I waited to long.
I had Redstuff on mine for over 2 years and while they weren't that dusty, they felt horrible, didn't stop well, and eventually disintegrated.
