I ordered all of my parts on-line. Used PartsTrain.com for the sensors and BuyBrakes.com for the pads. There are other vendors on this site that sell pads and sensors. I have used these two in the past and have had good luck.

I just did the fronts 2 weeks ago, here's a link to my post which includes a youtube video from a VW Touareg:
https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho....php?t=2824143

MAKE SURE you get some PB Blast and soak the caliper to carrier bolts!!! It took every bit of my strength to bust the bolts on the drivers side and I'm a fit 240lbs guy

Some other pointers, make sure you have a tq wrench that can tq to at least 200lbs, PB Blast is your friend, buy new bolts for the caliper to carrier, especially for the rear as I have read the rear triple square bolts are stretch bolts and new screws for the rotors... Have a impact screw driver to remove the rotor screws...

If you like to work on German cars a lot, I also found this triple square set for a decent price, it's made by Canadian tool company Genius

I got mine from this company: http://www.mltoolsequipment.com/product_p/bs-3416m.htm
