Default Re: At first engine was misfiring cylinder #5...

following the Bentley pocedure to check the POS's, I checked continuity and voltage output on the connectors to POS's and a few other connectors on the firewall. After diagnostics engine won't start and there is no spark on all cylinders. Will VAG tool be any help in this situation.

Default Only if you zapped it with static eletricity

Multimeter continuity test is very low voltage.

I would check your connectors, and make sure you didn't reverse the POS to Coil pack connectors ;-)
