Hi everyone,

I'm having difficulties warm starting my car and after trawling tinterweb think it may be the engine temperature sensor. I've just purchased one from eBay so hopefully it'll be quick to get here

Does anyone know whether it'd be worth getting a diagnostic cable and software to help to diagnose? Is the port on a Fabia 03 petrol easy to access?

The original problem is that my car will cold start no issue. After running for a while and then stopping it won't start again until it's sat for about 15 minutes and then no problem. As I need to fill with petrol and the forecourts are full of crazies I don't want to be lynched stuck at a pump with a stalled car

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers
