First off get a new battery, they should be at least 12 volts. Have you tried finding someone with VCDS, the box you plug into the diagnostic socket, to try and find if there is a fault code logged?

A healthy battery should show over 13 volts!

As previously suggested VCDS should provide the answer.

All the best and welcome to the forum.

Also, as it's an S reg you might be better off in the Octy 1 section...
