So my friends mom... Curbed her 06 Audi A4 2.0T Quattro while driving around... apparently she was going...an okay pace and slid while making a lefter. she didnt know what was wrong so she drove it to my friends place...upon analysis: http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._7097359_n.jpg first look...nothings wrong right? now check out the wicked positive camber http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._3641504_n.jpg now check out the 9" chunk of alloy and rubber missing http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._1096080_n.jpg now check out the godly alignment http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._4162167_n.jpg http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._4655307_n.jpg http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._5199216_n.jpg wow eh....im surprised she drove it all the way from burnaby to east side without a problem...called the shops and they towed it in for repair... how much u guys think this would cost? |
not cheap at least a G, looks like the arms are bent + rims cracked? |
It's an audi. She might as well buy a new one right now. Or like 15 volvos |

that's gonna cost a few g's....... one is not even close enough for parts |

Ouch. At least shes ok tho. |
she must have hit it really hard. |
Positive camber and negative caster. Must be pulling extremely to the right when your friends mom was driving. Something else is bent as well as CA's. $1k-$2k maybe. |
your moms friend is a noob |
AWD car + poor driving skills is this result |
sucker, winter tires would probably cost less than that one wheel. |

Explaining the purpose of winter tires to them is like trying to explain the concept of the chaos theory to a preschooler. It's all just going to go wrong. |
^LOLOL friction from an extra diffs is enough to stop my car in the snow! Although to get going in the snow based on my own experience I say the awd car > RWD with snow tires (open diff :P) but to stop and corner (where it counts) snow tires make a huge difference |

my FRIENDs MOM hahaha |
it shoulnt cost her that much for the repair, but it cost a lot for us to be on the streets |
holy shit man thats so fucked up u can tell by the first pic alredy alignment is wayyy off Quote:

drive carefully everyone! Sometimes you never know, when your brakes lock up (abs & panic - holding it) and a slight patch of ice.. I'm going to try and avoid as much driving as I can, I don't need the stress of a repair bill or meetings with icbc at this time of the year. |
Rim =100 - 1000( audi oem or aftermarket.) alignment = 80 - 100 Lower arm = 100 - 300 mount and balance wheel = 20ish shop charge = 30ish then shop wage on top of that |
Icbc even told people to not drive that much this winter. |
Cost should never be a factor, since it's minor expenses if your mom's friend rolls in an Audi, ahhaha. |
Ouch, that's going to cost major $$$ if she towed her car to Audi. I would imagine a few g's at least. |
