The car was well grazed during a hurricane. The car was almost completely flooded and no longer did anything. After all, electrical equipment and water do not mix well, yet Rich took the adventure and bought the car at auction.  <\/p>\n<h2>Head down<\/h2>\n<p>The well-known Youtuber knew what he was getting into, as he has a lot of <a href=\"https:\/\/zerauto.nl\/rich-rebuilds-gooi-die-tesla-in-een-zak-met-rijst\/\">experience<\/a> with electric cars that have gone head over heels. He often buys them for next to nothing, takes them completely apart, dries all the components and replaces the parts that are really fried.  <\/p>\n<h2>Audi E-Tron<\/h2>\n<p>The American took a different approach with the Audi this time. Instead of taking the car completely apart, he came up with another solution to &#8220;dry&#8221; the car. Through the Internet, he managed to acquire 2,000 kilograms of rice &#8211; which was nearing its expiration date &#8211; cheaply. He built a giant wooden crate, drove the Audi e-tron into it and filled the crate as well as the car with rice. Whether it succeeded you can see in the video below:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Water damage Youtuber Rich Benoit - of the YouTube channel Rich Rebuilds - bought an Audi E-Tron with water damage&hellip;","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":131288,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[94,172],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-131353","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-background-en","category-fun-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Man puts water-damaged Audi E-tron in giant bin with 2,000 pounds of rice - All cars news<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/all-car-news.com\/en\/man-puts-water-damaged-audi-e-tron-in-giant-bin-with-2000-pounds-of-rice\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Man puts water-damaged Audi E-tron in giant bin with 2,000 pounds of rice - All cars news\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Water damage Youtuber Rich Benoit - of the YouTube channel Rich Rebuilds - bought an Audi E-Tron with water damage in late 2022.
