VW Golf Help

My shop cleaned up an '00 VW Golf 4 door with 4 cyl. auto.

The motor was pressure washed, but only the cowl area and sides. (Not a direct hit).

The car was sitting out in sub zero temps, then pulled into my shop which is warm and humid-- hence condensation on anything cold.

Now the car won't start. Turns over, but the revs just drop off. No smoke/smell/drama. Sat for 6 hours to dry, and no go.

I know VW/Audi motors are fussy when it comes getting wet, the coils go etc. This one isn't acting like that, usually they run like ****.

Any ideas? TIA!
