VW Beetle 2002 1.9tdi engine troubles?

I have a 2002 (52) Beetle 1.9tdi. Several weeks ago starting having a intermittent fault where engine would just die. I had mechnic look at it- changed fuel filters and cleaned lines and checked fuel pumps. No error codes on diagnostics. Could find no problems, however problems perisited. I spoke to VW and suggested changing relay 109, which I have done. The problem is now not intermittent, but the engine won't fire at all. its as if there is no fuel....... Any ideas?

I am having the same problem with my 2001 beetle. Just wondering if you have found a fix.

CHECK FOR 12 V MIN TO THE FUEL CUTOFF SOLONOID ON THE INJECTION PUMP(USUALLY SINGLE WIRE).AN AUDIBLE CLICK SHOULD BE HEARD FROM SAME WHEN U DISSCONNECT THE WIRE(IGNITION ON)IF ABOVE OK REMOVE SOLONOID AND CLEAN.DONT DROP THE LITTLE PLUNGER OR SPRING FROM INSIDE THE SOLONOID.TEST THE SOLONOID BY CONNECTING THE TERMINAL TO BAT+ BODY TO BAT NEG SHOULD MAKE THE PLUNGER GO IN AND OUT
