i'm no expert, but here's what i'd do:

1. check the spark plugs (prolly in need of replacement)

2. if you know how, check the fuel injectors to make sure they're not all gunked up

3. pull the egr fuse and try to start the engine to clear any gas out of the system (if you're on the driver's side facing the fuse box, it's second from the top)



edit:

oh yea, keep the foot to the floor when you're starting and only let off once it actually starts

Doesn't that only apply to S5's?

Pull a spark plug and look at it. If it's wet, try the following:

nah, i've had to do it to my s4, esp when i first got it and had some plugs that needed to be replaced. i do it now still because sometimes it'll bog out and i'll have to pull the egr fuse and clear the gas left over
