Service Maintenance Fluids

Looking to perform my 45k (severe) mile maintenance this weekend which means I'll be doing the transmission and rear diff fluid, oil, plus my brakes.

Which fluids would be preferred for the transmission, oil and rear diff, plus which brake pads are best? I'll most likely be going to O'Reilly or Advance Auto to buy the stuff.

I figured I’d ask here before I start browsing random posts.

1. Transmission Fluid:
2. Engine Oil:
3. Rear Diff:
4. Brake Pads:

Car is an A6
