Audi tt starts and runs but after running it and shutting it off it won't start back up it just cranks

So we just recently found out the head gasket was starting to go bad and the fix was $2000 so we decided to use the blue devil head gasket sealant and the car works great and runs awesome as well as no temp spikes. Now after it sits for a while it will start right up and run like a champ but when the car was shut off and went inside and then back out to run it again it wouldn't start back up and just cranked and cranked and then would like sputter at about 200 rpms for a second and then shut off again.

have your idle control switch check, easy and inexpensive to replace. The idle control switch is what keep the engine stay idle. also have your throttle body clean by a professional having that many miles, it will give you better gas mileage.

It is most likely that you have a hole in your vacuum hoses (check your flame trap too) or your 02 sensor is bad. i would check both. good luck:)

SOURCE: 2006 f250 diesel....crank and crank

The first thought that comes to mind is a high pressure oil leak. The injectors have a snap ring on top that sometimes becomes detached and it will create these symptoms.

When you depress the brake it sends a signal to the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) and the PCM increases the idle because it predicts you are about to shift into gear. If the truck has a high pressure leak inside the engine it will have a hard time building pressure initially and once the oil warms and thins out the High Pressure Oil Pump cannot hold the pressure and the oil leaks faster because it is thinner.

You may have a leak around the pump area which is under the turbo also. The IPR which is the regulator that controls the oil pressure may also be bad. It is directly under the turbo as well. The IPR is located under the turbo on the High Pressure Oil Pump cover. You stated the seals were leaking on the IPR itself? If the orings are damaged or if the screen in the end of it is collapsed or even punched through with a small hole it will need replaced. Screen damage is usually a sign of debris entering it from either dirt from a previous repair or something is coming apart inside.

Make certain you have clean oil and fuel filters. Yor may want to check fuel pressure as well. It should be somewhere around 55psi on acceleration.

Additionally, I suggest check for voltage at the connector on the fuel pump. The pump is mounted in the filter housing on the frame and the connector is at the front of it. The pink and black wire should have 12 volts with the key on for about 30 seconds. If the pump has voltage but is not running, then your pump has failed. If there is no voltage then check fuse 2.40 in the central junction box. This is the fuse that feeds the inertia switch through the fuel pump relay. I have included a fuse box layout and a wiring diagram (click over images for zoom)...

Additionally, will need to scanned the PCM to know if some fault code is stored there.

Hey guys,have having trouble with my Audi TT, it’s an 2000 engine code AWP. So I recently had my timing belt, fuel pump, turbo, crank and cam sensors replaced. And a few days later as I was driving car had...

Mechanic needs to go back to basics. Engine on the TT isn't easy to get around so checking is no small thing.

Basics, in case your mechanic has forgotten are - timing, compression, the right amount of fuel in the combustion chamber at the right time and a good spark also at the right time.

If you have all those the engine will start and run, the engine doesn't so at least one of those essentials is absent, discovering which one(s) is what checking is all about.

I suggest the immobiliser is checked first. If the mechanic has some decent test gear he should be able to see some live data, oscilloscope patterns, etc., even at cranking speed, which would take some of the backache out of the job.
If there is no live data, etc. or what you are getting doesn't make sense maybe the management ECU died or there is a wiring or supply fault. An ECU is often weakened by welding, jump starting, boost charging and other stuff done in the name of car stuff - such weaknesses rarely show up straight away but cause trouble later.

It is also worth keeping in mind it isn't unknown for a catalytic converter to become blocked.
Good luck!

Difficult to start up sounds sluggish, once shut off, won't start, coil was hot (coil recently replaced). Needs new muffler.

Replace spark plugs with new ones. put new muffler in. The muffler has an affect on the way engine runs. (back pressure) is needed. At this age you may need a head gasket(s). Compression check on all cylinders. The list goes on... Good luck

Ran hot and stopped running and won''t crank. It will turn over and will start with starting fluid but won't keep running.

If the engine shut itself off when it was running hot, then you have done serious damage to your engine. It needs to be checked by a proper mechanic but at the least you have blown head gaskets but more likely warped or cracked heads. Sorry, but hope this helps.
