A lot of newer VW's have to be reprogrammed by the dealer just to restart after the battery has been completely drained. Sure hope it's not that, costs a lot from the dealer, sometimes they even have to come to the vechile itself to reprogram it since it won't come out of park sometimes. Good Luck!!!!

Why will a 2001 VW Passat not turn over?
Most likely he has to turn the ignition on when he tows the car, to prevent the steering lock from activating. As you know, leaving the ignition on will reset the system, so by the time he's back at the workshop the problem has gone away by itself.
