Did you actually "witness" the balance of the tires?
Allot of tire shops will only get the tire to "within" a
balance range and not
"0.0"

The front wheel drive Audi's are very sensitive to this!

Also why not replace the right front wheel bearing?  Its
the "drive" wheel
and usually goes bad first!  

Did you "witness" the front end alignment?  See a spec
sheet?
Were the "alignment specs" used by the shop, the correct
one's for your
model of Audi?  Some shops inadvertently use the specs for
other
model's of Audi, saying they'll work on the coupe!  

Try moving the front tires to the rear, and vise versa. if
the problems
follow the tire's. than you have your answer!

Food for thought!
