RE: oil light and stalling
the motor is not seized.
the motor does turn over but due to the CPS code it will not start.
im a technician myself, i checked the whole car over before i bought and drove it for a good 20-30 minutes.

Take the oil pressure sender out of the back of the oil filter housing and check the oil pressure, if its low take off the valve cover and pull a few cam caps off and check the bearing wear. If its not too severe, take off the oil pan and change the oil pick up tube. If its bad and stalling on you, then you might need a new engine mate. Audi will cover the repair if you can show proof of oil change reciepts.
