As above what have you done so far?

Was the temp sender a Genuine part? Are the plugs new / OK?

It could be a coil pack AGU coils don't usually go but they can

Have you cleaned the throttle body as suggested?

With a faulty Crank sensor you usually cant start the car when it is warm.

Sort to jump in. I've changed ignition amp coil packs temp sensor. And still the same oh yes and lamba sensor. Yesterday had it pluged into snap on machine and it came up throttle position sensor. And it's getting harder and harder to start over the last few days. Thinking about new crank and cam sensor next. After that who knows. Anubody
