I own a 2003 VW Polo with 124,403 km on it and I'm experiencing some issues. The engine turns over but won't start. Additionally, I've noticed a loss of engine power and it recently stalled at traffic lights, after which I couldn't get it to start again. What could be causing these problems and how can I fix them?

Start by checking the battery and its connections to ensure they are clean and secure, as a weak battery can cause starting issues. If the battery is fine, inspect the fuel system, including the fuel pump and fuel filter, as a clogged filter or failing pump can lead to power loss and stalling. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!
