Hi guys
Am new to the forum and new to owner a Lexus after my brother bought an RX300 I decided to take the plunge on a 06 IS220D, within a day of owning it the water pump went however got the guy who sold it me to get that sorted however I am having an issue with warm starts (not even sure if that's the correct term), anyway I'm not too clever with cars so here goes.
I can get up any morning and it will start fine first time every time, also if I have left the car a while and then go to start it it's fine, first time every time.
After Ive drove the car a good 30 miles so the engine is warm then try to start it, it takes ages of turning over before it'll start.
Checked the battery over and also hooked a jumper pack up and No change, anybody any idea of what to try or what the issue could be.
Any help is much appreciated I absolutely love driving the car and compared to the Renault Megan's I used to have so would really like to solve this little niggle
Have read through some stuff online and some people are suggesting it may be an engine temp sensor which would be an easy fix although would I've a second opinion
Btw engine tempera song inside the car stays as it should through an entire journey
