06 Passat 2.0t cranks normally won’t start. I’m getting fuel and spark

What is your question?

After I try to start it and stop cranking there’s a ticking noise that goes for a few seconds then stops. I’m getting spark and fuel I’m going to grab a noid test light to test for injector impulse tomorrow any ideas beyond that

What makes this problem better or worse?

Nothing cranks till it dies

How long has your 2006 Volkswagen Passat had this problem?

Few weeks was kind of losing power and kept being told about an inertia switch but I don’t know and then it just stopped starting
