They replaced everything brakewise, pads/discs/calipers/.. and everything on charge of Audi ofc.
I've done lots of jobs that don't involve getting inside the engine, such as replacing brake rotors/pads, alternators, starters, shocks, accessory/alternator belts, etc.
If this is going to take off you need to make sure it will work for those with upgraded brakes, specifically the Audi 8 pot and 362mm ap discs setup.
I took the liberty of swapping my A4 brakes into S4 brakes, all for 600 dollars. The brakes should response much better, stronger, and use much less pedal force. Your brakes when the engine is off should be REALLY hard if properly bled.
The 337/TT brakes will put a huge smile on your face. Of course, you should also make sure you have hi perf tires as well, or they will overpower your tires. It's a very, very wise upgrade. Get them with HPS pads and SS lines.
Hi Black betty... here's the bottom line,.... if the S3 brakes can be purchased and fitted to your car within your budget, then buy the brakes. I've got S3 brakes on my Mk4 Gti, and beyond a dogbone mount, they're the best value mod possible. For performance road applications, the brakes are superb and miles beyond stock Gti brakes.
also, bang for the buck...a pair of used S4 brakes do the job for street driving that's what i'm running and it's marked improvement over the crappy stock brakes.
