engine doesn't start....
I guess i screwed up the engine during tb replacement, so frustrated. best guess is damaged valve.
anyway everythings back on, timing was right and tension's good.
when key on, looked good. but starting engine isn't working.
At the first trial, engine actually started. but some serious vibrations afterwards, then died.
Engine never starts after this.
Best thing I can do is call a towing car i guess. It's saturday and bayarea no-cal. where should I go??

Do you have Bentley?
I would go back and double-check a few things... Specifically, the plug wires. In this case make sure your answer about wiring the plugs correctly is a solid yes. Do you have a VAG-COM? If not, use the locator to find someone who does. Look for any errors, but particularly ones that might indicate an open connection at a connector- this would tell you if something was not plugged in. Also, make sure your plugs were torqued to the manufacturer's specs. If you really want to get in to it, do a compression test, and a leakdown test. I suggest doing things in the order I listed them!

when I turn key and stay there, engine tries to work....
car(engine) vibrates like once per half second.
then oil light comes on in about 5 sec.
checked oil, it was good.
I'm sure plug and wire are connected well.
