Any reason an A4 1.8T wouldn't turn over for no reason but after it is kick started, it runs fine and starts fine for a while after that, but when it sits again for a while it won't start again?

Default Is there any power to the cluster/accesories when it doesn't start/crank?

Could be a bad ground, too. Or an ignition switch, or gremlins under your hood. Battery would be my first guess, over the web anyway.
