Twice now i've gone to start the car when hot and had no response from the starter motor at all. I've left it for about 10 mins and the car has started fine. Everything else comes on fine and I know its not the immobiliser. Any Ideas?

The all too common hot start problem. If you search on that subject you'll find there are solutions...(if it is that of course)

Mine did this during the hottest part of the summer, but has been ok since. Modwise do a modification which directs more battery currant to the starter and will overcome the problem. Just Google 'Modwise'thumbup

Another thumbs-up from me. Before the kit I had problems on a spring day in Kent, afterwards I had no problems in 35+ degree heat in Italy.

Easy to fit too!
