Don’t know the damage yet . Long story short…..Pirelli p zero tires aren’t good in the snow. I was actually on my way the garage to get my new winters put on (Fliks wrapped in Dunlop M3) What was I thinking trying to drive inthese condtions with such sh** tires on. I should have just stayed in bedthis morning. My insurance agent was out for lunch, now I just have to wait for them to get back to me now ....[:@]


Just had to get it off my chest...now i feel better

The reason fornotchanging them sooner was, I had a hard time finding rims that would fit over my brakes/calipers (Stage IV)

I hit a miniature tree?? Possible a large bush?? Not entirely sure what the heck it was it is (Its the thing that my car is next to in the pic) ….but before I hit that I hit the side a telephone pole and ending up scraping up the entire passenger side and putting nice size dents the whole length of the car.

It’s hard to tell from that pic. But I hit the bush/tree coming from the right hand side traveling to the left; they had a tough time getting her out…it was slick and my driver tire was pointed left and my passenger was going right…so every time they would try and pull her up she would slide to the side at goofy angles (Took em’ about 30 mins to finally get her out the driver wasn’t the smartest guy around) Thats why my car is pointed theopposite direction[:@]


I know for sure that my intercoolers are toast, that’s about all that I’m 100% sure on…. (I was only going 15-20 mph) But I am going back to the salvage yard tomorrow to see what else I can find going on with her

Thats very unfortunate im sorry i hope it turns out well. I slid off the road on my proxies in the rain, ripped a tire off and damaged a wheel. Luckily no trees or telephone poles....

bummer OP... by the way, if your engine cradle is bent at all, the car is toast... that's what did mine in, and my dad's old a6. I think you and me both learned the lesson of having a good set of winter's on while driving in the snow

based on body damage alone, that car is probably totalled, not to mention if you caused any frame damage from the tele pole...
