Thanks a lot for the suggestions. I end up exactly with the same thing. I did the research on the available caliper greases (synthetic, silicon base and etc.) and end up with not doing any experiments exactly for the same reasons. So, I’ll buy the Audi grease when I’ll buy there the brake pads.
The only missing part for me at this moment is torque specifications. I’ll keep searching for those and if I’ll find it I’ll post it as well...

And finally the last piece of the puzzle:

Front:
pins #15(#3 to be exact) torque: 30Nm; about 18 lb-ft
Bolt #12 torque: 190Nm – 140 lb-ft

Back is confirmed as well.
