I would simply request they repair the things that resulted from the collision, meaning the oil leak, and such.

Thanks for the reply. the dealership are the ones that said the turbos were leaking oil but idk if I belive them just because the car only has 66,000 miles. I'm taking it to a foreign car mechanic and I'm gonna have them check to see for sure where the oil is coming from.

Don't know where you reside, but most larger towns have Audi specialist independent repair shops. These are your friends. They know old Audis and can do repairs without guessing. They are usually worth finding and frequenting. NOT just a general Euro shop, they will cost you.
