I change the brakes on an Audi by removing the caliper. This is done by taking out the Allen head screws from the from the back side. If the rotor is worn, it will have a ridge along the outside so you'll probably have to knock the caliper off with a hammer. After you take the caliper off, take off the old pads find a tool to help you screw in the piston that presses the pads. This will give you enough room to put the caliper back on with the new(and thicker) pads installed. Most brakes i have changed in the past have the pistons that press in with a pair of channel locks or a C-clamp so this one kinda threw me for a loop when i tried it. And by the way, the brakes i changed were on an '01 A4 and i assume yours will be the same. Also, i am not a certified tech, so there are probably some shortcuts i don't know about but this is how i did it.
