Don't shoot me. But this is an old problem. The old polos did the same. I used to drive. Then It would just cut out. Leave it standing for around 20minutes. Start it again. And it runs like there were never a problem. Solution.fuel pump relay. Out of my own experience
I am driving VW Citi golf sport 1.4i,every morning whn is cold my car couldn't start, after many attempts it would and when I try to accelerate it will choke. After buying the temperature sensor my problem was solved. the mechanics advised me to buy petrol filter and petrol gauge regulator and a petrol pump, thanks I didn't buy them. Only a temperature sensor made my car a comfortable drive.
okay start hear turn key three times in a row there should here the fule pump prime ie a whizing noise you may not here this so now check the dash look for engine light it might flash if it dose it might be a code this is stored in the computer in your car .now this is where it gets tricky you need a code reader.but now what is the fact the year of the car and is it flueinjected tbi or carb and what year im not saying im a expert there a lot to go over start with check your manule then all ie oil coolent the right way by the book''''''I think it:is a seneser oil or coolent if the vw golf is 82 or newer but it dose matter what country the is in .in germany from 1975 the vw rabbit was a golf so it would help to know but find vw dealer there not cheep but they know golf I will say this if you smell petrol do not srart the car look for a leak if you find one fix it now dont wait it will cause a fire
Have it scanned from a shop that specializes in VW's and get the best guestimates of what's happening with the system. Now if you have the codes already, interpreting what it means is a different story and probably able to suggest you the corrections right away.
Need to hook up a VW scanner or equivalent so you can isolate where it's not functioning properly from the DTC (display trouble code) stored in it's memory.
