A viewer sent in this Audi S4 at Copart wondering why the tach is actually reading 1k. Is it possible that a car like this can still run?

Floor mats are still good.
Buff it out
I would fix this give me some time and a few tools I got it
Craig's list, who the fuck is craig.
5mph rollover. That is impressive
arthur tussik would rebuild that
There was a car in the junk yard I go to. From what i can find this Nissan Xterra was rear ended push off a embankment roll down it then stop on is side. I was watching the tow truck driver unload it from the truck. It was moving under is own power. A wheel was missing, the back history, the hoof was smash the. By the end of is time in the yard it was pick clean of all useful parts. That Nissan did not want to die.
Just missing a couple of wheels. That's not damage, it's designer Air-Conditioning, the paint job is by Louis Vuitton. BUY IT and then claim it as "Post Modern Art" and sell for millions.
Lool…this wouldnt even be a good parts car, was someone really thinking they could rebuild it??
Have you ever bought something like this and transplanted the engine in a lesser model? For instance, I have a 2012 Audi A4 Quattro. How hard would it be to transplant an S4 or even a RS4 drivetrain into an A4 (similar year of course)?
Did anyone notice the speed gauge? They're stuck!
I hate to think what the people that were in this car look like now,,
The engine bay looks relatively unscathed, so if you were able to get this car for a good price you could make a decent profit just selling the engine and transmission.
Úh ño
You can buff that out.
3:44 that just looks like shit.
The fake news media loves to use the stuck speedometer to say that a car crashed at really high speed, when in reality, only the calculations done by the investigators and the ECU data prior to the impact will determine that actual speed of the car at the moment of impact. Heck, I have seen cars with speedometer needles stuck at 160 km/h (100 mph), when in reality crashed at a lower speed. What happens is that electrics go haywire when the car crashes, so there's this spike that can cause the instruments to give false readings. I mean, there's no way this Audi was idling when it rolled over. Btw, did anyone survive that crash?
I have had cars that the gauges don't read 0 when off, as soon as you turn the key to power them that's when they go to 0,
I wanna know the story behind this car. Damn did the person even survive this crash.?
I thought it was a mustang when I saw the first photo.
Modern cars use servos to move needles on instrument panel. Those servos don't have automatic "return to zero" and require command from ECU to do so. If they are no longer receiving commands then they simply stay at last commanded value. This most of the time happen when car loose 12V power (engine+battery). It is side effect of how instrument panel is designed … bad thing about this is 1) strong impact may move them. Therefore it is possible that speedometer show after crash higher speed that car was traveling. 2) crash and power lost may not occur at same time providing "needles" time to be commanded to return to zero. This will wipe possible evidence (but fist thing is causing questions)
That’ll buff out
super glue
The tach HAS to be stuck
I'd find it interesting to see cars that actually run after severe damage
I once saw a wreck and the speedometer was stuck on 180km/h…
Don't get it. Why this car has a salvage certificate and some with a small dent in the frame don't have salvage certificate?
Give that car to Arthur Tussik
I need the for the engine
eh lil bit of bondo she will buff out.
if i could get this car under 1000 i would make it run, and it would be drift/ race/ apocalyptic car
I was in a wreck the speed was stuck at 70 kmph it's just stuck . . no way it runs
I had a car where the gauge would "stick" just on normal shutdown. No problems when "on", just a quirk about the way it powered off.
that engine for swapping
Maybe there is no engine bay photo because the engine got ejected in the crash!
That guy has some story to tell from that car accident if he lived
Bit of bondo would fix the small problems on the roof
Hahah saw that car last nite and now came across this vid. I was shocked that it is for sale (auction)
The title was changed to junk just looked at the listing
