[G4SYU]

all the lights come on the dash but the car won't crank??!!

recently every time i start the car, all the lights on the dash will fade away and the car will start will slow/weak cranks and eventually start.
but now the car won't start at all.
the radio and all the lights work.
but the car won't start!

got a mk5 gti dsg.

all suggestions/advice welcome!

With the fading lights I would have originally said dead battery... Test it first and work from there. I wouldn't keep turning it over because it could be something more serious!

deffo sounds like a battery issue.

On another note, I think I may have seen your car around before the Brune Street/ Toynbee st area of East London.

Result!

Yeah I work around there too. I walk through that housing estate everyday and see a few GTI's and R32's there.

I recognised the wrap. Didnt you have it removed? Saw bits of the wrap on the door which hadnt been taken off.

 Could also be a starter motor issue. if it's not the battery.
