I already have installed front 345mm rotors and calipers/carriers/shields/lines) from a 2008 R32/Passat V6 4-MO. So that works.
2008 Passat V6 4-MO front rotors, calipers, caliper brackets, and brakelines are plug and play. You get a factory BBK with 345mm rotors and calipers with a slightly bigger piston....as to not screw with the MC and brake balance too much.
I have a Canadian 2018 4motion Trendline, it came with 288mm front rotors.
Stock rotors are great, these brakes stock are very decent.
Switching to Centric rotors (Stoptech) and akebono pads. At first I thought the slight pulsing was warped rotors, but sanding the surface of the rotors, made it go away.
Before my StopTech BBK, I ran Centric high carbon blank rotors. They are affordable on Rock Auto, and lasted forever.
I had the same with my GTI 2015 manual, I was braking less because I was using the engine brake a lot. At 8000 km I made a complaint at the dealer, they changed the discs, and suggested that I brake harder
Do both. The stock rotors are pretty garbage and cover your car in iron anyways.
Just noticed yesterday my front rotors are pretty scored too - got a screw in my tire and the repair shop commented on the rotors too.
Imperfections in either the brake rotors or pads making gouge marks in my rotors
