Sorry to hear about the accident dude...

Least u walked away from it..

I would say that is possibly fixable... depends how much you want to spend though and if its insured..

If u need a good panel beater send me a PM

from looking at ur second shot, seams like the reo has been chopped, maybe in japan, if thats the case you'll have a tuff time getting insurance to pay you out. they'll claim that the cut out caused a laxk of structural strength and void ur insurance.

ouch sorry to hear and see that one dude...However a decent panel shop will make short work out of that one...once all the damaged panels come off they can start work straightening it all out...you would be hard pressed to know if it ever had a hit.front enders are always more favourable than rear enders...chassis always twists in a rear ender...cars drive like a crab

Damn, I know how it is with lack of sleep and exam stress. 2 years ago I reversed into a car while parking, its like my brain didnt register that there was even a car behind me even though I had plainly seen the car :thanks:

Yeah main thing is if its insured?

Edited by Yawn

lol naa its not insured

i got money to fix it

just gotta have some expert opinions on weather or not it is worth it. from what i can tell the chassis is still in good condition.

for eveyrone now that only has 3rd party.. get full comp!

hooly crap dude. feel for ya. as Mav said least you walek away from it.

quick question though did the airbags pop out?

yeah they popped out

i cant remeber if it hit me in the face or not it happened so quick

but they stiiink so bad and they fill up the whole cabin with smoke.

scary stuff

dont reo bars usually get chopped to fit intercoolers? seeing as his car is NA i doubt someone tried fitting in a intercooler :rofl:

Bad luck mate, luckily you're alright.

Can we see pics of the audi? :P

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
