Having no joy at all with this! Need to get it to the dealers but as ive got no breakdown cover im screwed. Anyone got a car transporter they want to lend me lol

Battery fully juiced? You've probably checked that already and I know it seems obvious, but when I did my ABS purge a while back, it depleted the battery just enough to give loads of warnings on the dash, car wouldn't turn, error codes via VCDS... quick charge and all was right with the world.
More than likely not this, but always worth trying the simple things. Best of luck with it mate :happy2:

Yea battery seems fine although the green indicator lamp on the battery isnt illuminated. The car turns over fine just wont fire up :mad:

This makes 2 of us. Its happened to me, I jetted my car and it died when i got home. Its the ECU, you must of got water in.
When you turn your key, do you get the engine light on (I didnt). Try borrowing another ECU and plug in and turn the key (you should get the engine light but wont start cos of the immo), this way you can make sure before sourcing a ECU.

No i got the traction control and tyre pressure warning light. Also the lights for dsg were all flashing. I had no readings on the temp gauge and my fans are running very fast.
