So my friend has a 2002 Volkswagen Passat station wagon that turns over but won't start!! It started one time when she sprayed starter fluid but now nothing!(jus turns over) What could the problem be????

SOURCE: how do i put transmission fluid in a 2001 passat

fluid service on that trans is done with a computer monitor at a set temp and car raised and level. unless experianced with this proceedure it is best to go back to the dealer.

SOURCE: have spark,no fire,sprayed starter fluid into throtle body but does not start

Turn key forward listen for the fuel pump to pressurize if you don't here anything then your fuel pump needs replaced and it's in the tank.

SOURCE: Will not start without spraying starter fluid for a second.

I would start by changing the fuel filter. The next area would be the O-rings if so equipped. If it starts better after a short use then you are getting air in the fuel lines overnight. Diesels are tempermental. The cranking speed of the starter is important and easily checked externally. If you have a mechanical fuel pump you are relying on cranking speed to prime the fuel system. The timer or timing wiring could prevent the glowplugs from heating up. Diesels rely on glowplugs to start, then compression to run. Its a lot to look at but I suggested the cheapest fixes first.

SOURCE: check engine light does not turn off

If the light is still on there is a problem that is causing it to not turn off. If you replaced the EVAP cannister take a look at the EVAP solenoid. It trips the same code as the cannister and is more often the cause of the light rather than the cannister.

SOURCE: recently I have had to spray starter fluid in the

my expediton started the other day and immediately shut down, it wont turn over. has a new air filter, 1/4 tank gas, new oil change. it started when we sprayed starting fluid but then shut off. what is wrong?
