2005 S4 won't start - HELP
I am very new to the S4 world, today is my first day with the car. Picked it up, drove to my grandma's house to help her clean for a couple of hours. Went outside to leave and the car would not start. Tried a couple times nothing. Let it sit. Tried again, nothing. Left, let it sit for hours. Came back and still nothing.
It will crank, but will not start.
I have read on many forums and this seems to be quite common. Crank sensor usually seems to be the culprit. However most posts I read said that if they let the car sit, it would usually start.
I am really looking for some guidance here. I know the guy who I got it from, so should I see if this crank sensor repair will work or just get this thing out of my life ASAP?
Thank you.

Yes, it turned out to be the fuel pump. I picked it up today and seems to be running fine.
Although on the way to work I noticed I was getting a speed sensor beep. I guess it was set to 80 mph.
I saw on some other forums you can reset it by holding the "check" button and also from the windshield wiper ****?
