Ready to race!
Need some help on what to look at to find out why my car won't start anymore. Car was idling in my driveway for a couple of minutes, then it died(with no weird sounds) and just cranks without a hint of trying to turn on. Battery is on a charger, so there's no issues with power
I do have a spare ECU but I left it somewhere that would take me a couple of hours to get, so what else can I check/log before I go get that ECU?
Things I've checked so far
Any weird sounds while cranking(like valves hitting the pistons due to skipped timing, etc)
ECU does not report any faults through VCDS
Car has over 1/4 of a tank but added 2 gals to be sure
Checked all the fuses in the engine bay and inside the car
Fuel pump duty cycle(70%), fuel rail pressure(195 bar) & injector timing(3ms) while cranking
Cylinder compression(165, 165, 170, 160)
All 4 spark plugs have spark while cranking
Replaced camshaft position sensor again as that was replaced a month ago due to leaking oil
