Daewoo Lacetti Car Problems

I have a Daewoo Lacetti 1.6 2005 model. Great car to drive normally but when the car is heated up and I switch the car off the car will no longer start. I have to leave the car a few hours before the car will start again. Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem? Thanks in advance for your replies.

  • Had a problem like this on a previous car and it was a crankshaft sensor If I recall correctly. Relativly cheap repair. Take it to a garage and ask them to have a quick look.

    Floor the throttle then turn the engine off at the same time. That will keep the inlet clear of exhaust gas.

    If that works you probably need an new EGR valve. Or get it blanked off.

  • Do you mean the engine spins "renrenrenrenrne", or upon turning the key does the engine do nothing - ie, silence?
