Hi all need help, or my X's is gunna kill me haha, Initially car died and X flattened battery whilst tryn to restart, jumpd it of my Golf checked codes on Vag steering angle sensor, Rpm crank sensor, abs sensor, which i suspected tripped to low voltage some of them, cleared codes and got it fired up,rest of codes cleared as she drove 100m serviced it following weekend usual 12 mnth filters oil change she is 2nd owner 261kms on clock i regularly service vehicle, she said was still slugish to start in week up to service on occasions,and has been intermittent like that for while apparently. Replaced 3 yr old varta battery with exide extreme, ran scan again on service intermittent implausible RPM crank sensor and climate control sensor coming up on Vag, replaced climate control sensor and Rpm crank sensor cleaned intake and EGR of sludge and carbon re assembled no start at all, removed rpm sensor checked reluctor for metal som minor bits cleaned reluctor with degreaser and rag removed metal particles tested sensor output whilst cranking with multi meter seemed ok,put it back together still no go, removed sensor replaced new one with old one and dismantled fuel intank lift pum checked 9 psi 2.25L per min flow dismantled starter motor cleaned commutator checked brushes greased etc crank speed is 160 Rpm and Rpm sensor code not coming upafter clearing so must of been metal on reluctor which is not gear type but drum type reluctor, have ran Vag pump purge of fuel system yet no fault code in enginenow, only sterring sensor but suspect that will clear when driven, on crank now will hesitantly fire but not run, almost sounds like timing is out but can not be as not touched anything there, Any clues appreciated and may put smile on X's face
Thanks
