Again, I believe you saw what you saw, but here are the tech specs for the '02 A6 2.7l Turbo Quattro showing 321mm rotor... Pads are a separate issue.

The '01 shows the same thing, as does the '03.

The 2.8 & 3.0l NAs have 288mmx25mm rotors. As far as I can find, no 2001+ A6 has ever had 215mmx25mm rotors.
Again, I'm not trying to argue, but you wanted help from the Audi knowledgeable, and this is what I believe to be true. Unfortunately, the specs do not detail caliper and pad configuration. A phone call to one of the vendors I listed will probably get you more answers.
