Car won't turn over doesn't click at all but battery is strong...
Did you check all the fuses and is you car a standard trans or automatic if its a standard could be your clutch switch or could be your trans range sensor or could be a bad connection on starter wire they are bad about that. if you have a test light have somebody turn it to start put clamp on negitive ternmal and test light probe on starter igniter wire

You may have enough battery volts but not enough amps to crank the engine over. First double check all your battery cables to make sure they are all very clean and tight. If they are, try tapping on the solenoid to see if it's stuck. If it doesn't make a difference, check the ignition wire form ignition to the solenoid. A cracked wire can also cause this. Most part stores will test the battery for free.

Hi before you take the dashboard out check the following (if it is the starter relay they are usually
on the fuse board which will be behind a panel on the lower part of the dash or a separate fuse box
in the engine bay)
To find out if it is the starter or the starter electrical try this procedure.
Make sure the key is OFF then go to the starter ( i think its not to bad to get at )
On the starter there is a big terminal ( +cable from the battery always live )
and a small terminal which is the small wire which becomes live when you turn the key
To find out if the starter is ok simply put a screwdriver across these two terminals mommentarily
With the transmission in neautral or park if auto box
If the engine turns over then you know the starter is ok and the problem is the supply from key swicth to starter which could include a relay
Also if the car is auto box then there will be a swich on it which could be faulty
I hope i have been able to help you with this problem John ( South Wales UK )

IMPORTANT NOTE:
You must have the security anti-theft code for your VW radio from the car manufacturer, or from a VW dealer!
You can find the radio code at: http://www.radio-code.co.uk/
The sequence of VW radio gamma programming is:
1. Push simultaneous "SCAN" and "RDS" keys until on the screen will appear "1000" displayed.
2. Release keys. No more push on "SCAN" and "RDS" keys because otherwise number "1000" will be considered as first safe code attempt.
For example: we have the security code "5079". Then:
3. By the no.# 1 key you will set up the first safe code digit. Push 5 times on the no.# 1 button. The "5" number will be setted.
4. By the no.# 2 key you will set up the second safe code digit. Push 10 times on the no.# 2 button. The "0" number will be setted.
5. By the no.# 3 key you will set up the third safe code digit. Push 7 times on the no.# 3 button. The "7" number will be setted.
6. By the no.# 4 key you will set up the four-th safe code digit. Push 9 times on the no.# 4 button. The "9" number will be setted.
7. Then push again simultaneous "SCAN" and "RDS" keys for confirm this safe code. On the screen will be displayed "SAFE" notice. Release keys! For few seconds a radio frequence will be displayed.
The radio is now ready for use!
