Hello.

Can be alot of causes. Most common:

Egr clap closed - doesn t allow air intake - car also blows black smoke while cranking.

Fuel intake
- low pressure fuel pump - located inside the fuel tank - may be burnt
- high pressure fuel pump - engine bay - also may be burnt
- not enough fuel inside the tank
- fuel leaks before reaching injectors

etc

Hope it helps

SOURCE: I am Having the same problem can anyone tell me

If you can physically see there's no spark at the sparkplugs then you need to check the HT leads(spark plug leads), resistance should be no more than 14 Kilo Ohms per foot of cable! If they're ok check the coil pack for signs of arcing to earth(very common in these cars!) and if they are getting a 12 Volt supply from the ignition, if ok then check the amplifier which is screwed to the top of the air filter housing to see whether voltage is getting through from there, if ok check the crankshaft position sensor! (Also a common fault on these) Has your vehicle got an immobilizer? These when activated, disable the engine control unit and stop the signals from getting to your ignition amplifier module!

I have an 1993 Audi 100 S, that fails to start. The starter cranks, but the motor wont start. There is no spark to the plugs, and the electric fuel pump works.I have replaced the engine crank sensor, and...

Check the cam position sensor. A scan tool will show if its bad, but replacements are cheap on Ebay. It's located on the back of the engine, driver's side at the back end of the camshaft. A disc about 3" in diameter bolted on and a wire harness plugged into it. When this goes bad the engine cranks but won't start.

Could be the distributor speed sensor which tells the coils when to fire.

My crank sensor for 1997 Audi A6 quattro is showing low voltage and wont start what is causing this

Your crank sensor is bad. That is also what causes a no start like you are experiencing. The crank sensor takes the place of a distributor and tells the computer what position the engine or crank is at so it knows where to send the spark. You are going to need to have the crank sensor replaced.

Ran out of diesel 1.9 TDi 74kw. have refuelled and cranked engine for 15mins and still it won't start. there is fuel from tank to filter, to pump and return flow.

This is very important for Audi 1.9 TDI engine: IT IS FORBIDDEN TO RUN WITHOUT DIESEL FUEL IN RESERVOIR !!!
This type of engine is equipped with pump-nozzle injectors which develop up to 2050 bar injection pressure !
Remove the fuel filter, fill up with diesel fuel and put in place. After that try to start the engine with accelerator pedal to the floor. Heed of electric starter motor temperature and battery status! After 40 - 50 sec. of start attempting wait for 1 - 2 minutes for battery and electric starter motor revival. After few starting attemptions the engine must start.
