Default 2001 A6 got wet... advise? experiences?

Hi all,

My 2001 A6 2.8 Quattro got wet last weekend because of the heavy storm
(Philadelphia, PA). It took in water, about 1 foot high, up to the
level of the power seat switches. All the electronics are screwed up,
the engine won't start, etc, etc, etc.

Insurance company flips flops. One day they say they'll total it, and
just yesterday they insisted on getting it fixed instead. The Audi
dealer said they'll fix all the electronics and wiring and replace them,
then it'll get sent to a bodyshop to do non-electronics stuff.

Has any of you had first-hand experience with this? Is this something
to worry about? i.e., once they replace and fix all these things, is
the car going to be fine? Or should I insist on getting it totaled -
and if they won't, should I look to get rid of the car the minute after
it got repaired?

Thanks for any help.

Gil.
