Hit while parked

My A4 (91k miles, perfect service history) was just hit by a neighbor from parking on the street and insurance is likely totaling it. absolutely devastated, I am in love with this car and the interior and mechanicals are still perfect. kept her in such good condition.

Has anyone here gone through the process of buying back a totaled B7 to swap parts or rebuild? I’m torn between trying to save it or just taking the payout and hunting for a twin. Any advice on dealing with adjusters regarding the “collector“ value of a low-mileage B7 would be appreciated.

Took a few pictures on a nice day, right before putting it in the shop. Going to attempt the timing job myself. As well as track down a coolant leak. Wish me luck.

Hello guys!

2005 A4 B7 Avant

I hope that someone can help me with my problem.
I can lock it inside with the button, and the car locks above 20km/h.
But i cant lock or open it with the remote, only with the key hole.
When i open it with the key, only the driver's side door opens.
I replaced both CCM-s.
I replaced the driver side door wiring, and the driver side lock catch.
I've tried re-syncing the keys, replacing the battery, teaching the keys in the ignition and with vcds.
My only fault code in the comfort module is the alarm.(01134)
What can i do to make the remote control work?
Thank you

The brake pedal gets stiff when engine off but when idling and driving the brake pedal needs a couple of pumps to lock the wheel. Also there is this weird rumbling noise when i pump the brakes?
