2001 jetta starts for a second and then dies?

This happens all the time in the Jettas. What happens is the cars computer loses the key code for the laser cut key and doesent recognize the key when you try to start it, so it shuts down. You should see a flashing key on the instrument panel when you try to start it, that's letting you know that you are using the wrong key. You will have to take it to the dealer and have the keys reprogramed, which costs around $75 if I remember correctley. Good luck
