Welcome!

You've come to the right place, as you own a Mk4. What's the problem exactly?

when the car does start, it has no power. i put my foot down and it doesnt respond, it just goes up to about 2000 revs. thought it might be an electrical problem at first. so i checked the coil and leads, there is current there(just thought, might change the spark plugs in the morning). so now i think it might be fuel lines or something, as i still hear the fuel pump when the ignition is on.

also when the ignition is on i can hear like a faint alarm, coming from the back of the engine bay, not sure if it was there before. has anybody heard this aswel, if so do you know what it is?

Thanks
