FA and found out, battery was disconnected, didn't help.
First start was okay, but still CELs.
Now a little trouble with starting,after disconnecting battery, the engine dies...
.. battery terminals are okay, air box and filter seem okay...if not even clean

I think the car is telling you it is time to move on.
You are the only person I can recall on here constantly posting about their POS car!

To be fair, I don’t really post about Pepper my 2006 Sprinyer. Dash often looks like Christmas with all the blinking lights.

I’m wondering if your car may have ingested a little water resulting in a very slightly bent rod. Will still run with a lopey idle.

Screw anyone who calls my car a POS
It drove through a big puddle at highway speed at 11:30pm right after a snow storm. Simply needs a lot of maintenance
Currently there's whistling from the turbo

I’m not making it up about the hydrology possibility. If that’s the case your comprehensive may cover a motor.

What the actual.. ... didn't think of a motor
Oh yeah it's running lamely right now, it's parked. I think I'll brave a 2 mile drive, just gathering coffee strength

I had problems with my 1976 VW Rabbit but it was a great car (ate transaxles) until I gave it to my brother and he got hit head on by a wrong way drunk driver.Nah it’s okay I haven’t posted my living room, nor styrofoam recycling but then again I’m told I’m different than happy highwayman
He survived with zero injuries remarkably enough.
RIP Rabbit.
This is the only photo I have readily at hand of it; through a fence while playing Volleyball in a park in Miami likely around 1980 or so.

you're kinda wrong though, actually I'm mostly posting about routine maintenance. It did wear out basically, tires, brakes, etc.OK, that's this time, how about the other dozen times?
on this particular VW, the start-stop button was certainly one real issue that I recall OTOH--indeed, thinking quickly I cannot recall of much else. (* - right, I remember posting about the button 1-2 weeks ago, that it's replaced)
but.... since I have 2 VWs maybe I post double
