Reluctant starting when hot

Featured Replies

Hi all. My first post even though I joined in 07 when I was looking for info before buying my vRS.

Anyway, in the last few days I have noticed that my car is very reluctant to start when the engine is warm. It seems absolutely fine (at the mo) when the engine is cold but really struggles when its hot (not used to this as i've not had any problems with the car since buying it). Does anybody have any ideas as to what the problem is? and how much any parts may cost? and if they are easy to fit?

Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

Temp sensor at a guess

Car thinks it's cold when hot so does a cold start procedure, hence the problem.

I'm not a satan fuel expert though so may be wrong !!!

Come too think of it I'm no expert at all :)
