Default Minimum Brake Pad and Rotor Thickness - 2016 2.0t Quattro

I’m trying to find the chart or numbers from ElsaWeb or Alldata that shows the minimum brake pad and rotor thickness for the front and rears for a 2016 A6 2.0t Quattro (the “ad-new numbers would also be helpful).

I am considering a CPO with approximately 20k miles that had 7mm of thickness on the front pads, 8mm on the rears pads, 21mm of thickness in the rear rotors, and 33mm on the front rotors. After scouring the forum, I can’t seem to find the baseline numbers for these, but they seem to be on the low side, although within spec.

Thanks in advance!

You can look them up on the ECS website for example. The front rotors start at 34 and the rears at 22. Usually you have about 2 mm before the are considered worn. Pads start around 10 mm and at 3 mm they are recommended to be changed. So you have about half of the life left on this brakes.

Here's the link to the front rotors. This model seems to have the 356x34mm rotors based on your current thinkness. But there are also 320x30mm rotors.
