RE: my scirocco update



I'm no expert on any auto stuff, but I've had 2 experiences with total
no-starts.
1) starter assembly had some bad contacts.  Solenoid clicks, but no
juice to the motor.  No amount of jumping would solve this.  Simply
cleaned the contacts and vroom.
2) failing pump relay.

	Ok here is the current update on my scirocco.  I just went home
and tried
	to jump it like most of you suggested.  I didn't want to do
anything
	wrong so I followed the EXACT instructions for jumping the car
that are
	given in my scirocco owners manual.  The result was no
different, the car
	didn't do a damn thing.  No cranking, no noise, no nothing.  I
asked a
	local mechanic real briefly what he thought without looking at
it and he
	said that the battery might be too dead to even charge, if it's
not
	something else.  So the question is, what now?
