Hey guys, I got a 2015 Audi S4 with 115k miles that got hit in a hit-and-run. My shop just did a full teardown and gave me a $6,500 estimate using aftermarket parts. Damage is: • Crushed passenger fender • Bumper • Headlight • Hood (they’re saying they might replace) • Radiator support • Apron is slightly bent but repairable • Front passenger suspension is messed up • Wheel/rim probably needs to be replaced

The car was super clean before this — no prior damage at all. I’m in New Jersey. Insurance appraisal team is reviewing everything now and is gonna write their own estimate, Do you think this gets totaled or do they usually repair something like this? Appreciate any real experiences, especially if you’ve had similar damage on an Audi or even another car.

Yesterday, my 2015 Audi S4 involved in a hit-and-run. I’m concerned about the damage and whether it’s considered total loss. I have 115,000 miles, no mechanical codes, and the car still drives straight after the accident . The damage is to the fender, headlight, bumper, and wheel liner, and possibly the lower control. The car turns on and has no leaks, My insurance adjuster hasn’t inspected the car yet, but a claims representative looked at the pictures I have attached and they said I should be clear from a total loss, because they looked up the year model and mileage and estimated the acv between $10,000 and $18,000. I’m just concerned since I’m with Liberty Mutual. I’m not sure if they’re strict. I had the car sent to a personal shop because the insurance was gonna pick up the car with Copart.
