Hi, have you checked the hall sensor (cam position sensor)

This is the plug below the distributor.

You should be able to but a lamp or meter across the outputs and carefully move the car by hand with it in gear.

Should get a light/buzz/continuity every full revolution.

Have u checked the HT leads? Also check ignition switch, and finally what's ur battery like? If it's pooop n not giving out enough power the spark won't b strong enough to start the engine.

Have you checked the lead from the coil though? Also which coil do you have as there's a one piece and two piece? The two piece one has a separate amplifer, so if its this one did you change both parts?

Just a long shot and I'm not doubting your work but is the crank sensor all the way in? First time I done mine i thought it was but it wasn't and didnt work.

When you say the loom has no immobiliser has there been an aftermarket one fitted? has it not been removed properly ie cut wires not been rejointed correctly and have came loose?

not much else to try mate other than the ecu itself.

EFI Main relay?  AKA ECU Relay?  i believe desperate to fuel pump relay on the golfs,  unlike most EFI systems
