well, in October my 15 year old daughter was able to get enough speed to get
it to fire.
But it would only take  half a turn or so.

Can U hear the fuel pump build up pressure when the ignition is first turned
on ?

Tried the push start method... 2nd gear vs. 3rd... no luck. Course it
was not a tremendous incline, but I did have 2 helpers pushing.

Cold enough that the clutch engage/disengage is very thick... Yet should
have fired---or so I thought.

Turn on ignition...
Get someone on the back bumper to push,
Put in third gear, and once you have some speed dump the clutch.

I had to do this for a weekend when the starter did exactly what you
describe.
Give it a try...

Patient: 93 urS4 111K miles, I'm guessing with original battery (I've
had the car for 3 years and 35K miles)

0 degrees F outside this evening. Turn the key---absolutely nothing. No
click, no starter engagement, certainly no start.



Call AAA---they bring big tow truck. Try portable power pack jump---no
luck. Hook up to the big truck---no luck. Wait 5 minutes staying warm in
big truck before trying again----no luck.



No click, no starter, no start.



If the battery is deader than the doornail---why wouldn't the jump start
work?



What else should I check?
