Default 2001 A4 Starting issues..

I have a 2001 A4 that is having intermittent starting problems..It usually starts fine but once in awhile it will just crank and not turn over, then a few minutes later, or hours later it fires right up no problem. It does smell like it's getting fuel, so I don't think thats the issue. My best guess is that it's a key or sensor issue of some kind??

I just had a problem where my manual 2001 1.8T wouldn't start, as I suspected it was the clutch sensor. $500 at dealer, $100 part
