Wont start. acts like its out of gas - 2000 Volkswagen Passat 4Motion

The first thing ill do is check the fuel filter and second fuel regulator,also the egr valve if fuel filter is clogged it wont start ,if the regulator dont deliver fuel it wont start, also check for the plug wires in the distributor cup if the one on the center is loose it wont start good luck!!!

charge or replace batery... if doesnt help, check ground, may be loose electric connection..

check battery and connection,fuel filter,air filter,spark plugs,it is cold put some gas anti freeze in tank.

read the fault codes to determine the fault area

I would suspect the fuel pump inside the gas tank is defective. Next time it fails to short hook up a fuel pressure gauge to the engine test port in the fuel supply pipe to the fuel injectors. You can buy the tester for about $25.00 on line.

Possible low fuel pressure. Should be 31-35 depending on which engine you have. Check to see what you have.

Distributor cap and rotor

ck your maf sensor and make sure first, youe fuel filter is good.

change fuel filter.check fuel pressure.

This sounds like your fuel pump. See if you are getting fuel to the fuel rail. Sometimes giving the vehicle a good shake will help it to temporarily start. Also try the relay.
