Have the same issue on my polo GTI, book shows 3 different brake disk diamters... all depends when the car was manufactured and which callipers they fitted..

I suspect the only way to be sure is to measure the old disk... Or... try calling VW with the chassis number, they might be able to tell you which disk size its sposed to be...

Go! VW/Audi.
As curious digression:
Remember the late 80's Audi Unintended acceleration screwup?
Welll ...In North America annual Audi Sales number has YET to reattain their 1986 sales level.
An refreshing factoid given the.. unrelenting...advertising for the things.
