Default 2nd. Happened to me after 4 months of "downtime"
She sat at the shop for 1/3 of a year. Rebalanced 'em & we're good to go.

Proper torque for a B4 is 81 ft/lbs.

Default "The car satin my garage all summer." How about rust fused the pad to the rotor...
...and left a nice deposit in that spot...since they're brand new there wasn't much clearance? I bet if you put the car up and spun both of the front rotors you'd see some rust/pad deposit from where the car sat......
