When the vehicle will not start when you spray water on the plug wires, that means that the insulation around the plug wires has failed. Replace the plug wires.
When you squirt water on plug wires and the car stalls, that means that your plug wires are bad. PLUG WIRES (not rotor, cap, or any sensor).
Replace your spark plug wires with new, and you should be fine.
the key battery is only for the unlocking the doors part has nothing to do with engine starting its just a coincidence this happened at the same time i believe something else is your problem.it could be the coil or even the crank sensor but if your machanic knows your car then go with it if its not that. you should not have to pay for it.
i have a 2002 vw cabrio and won't start after i took out the battery everbody is telling me that anti-theft is lock mode how do i rest it so i can start my car
On some models, the Engine Control unit has a power supply relay. These relays some times get internal dry solder points. After driving for some time the the solder will get hot and separate. When it cools down it makes contact again. You will have to replace this relay or open it up and re- solder the solder joints. The relay is usually located on the main relay station in position 3. the relay station is located behind the right dash panel.[right hand drive vehicles]. You may need to refer to a manual for your specific model to find the exact location of the relay.
Either you threw a belt or the water pump isnt not circulating. You can drive to the shop. Just becareful. When you see it getting hot shut er down and let er cool. If you get it too hot you could cook the motor.
I do believe that you have to reprogram the key, check your local dealer; that is the simple solution. The same problem can be caused by the ignition coil being bad. Good luck
