Hello and welcome to just answer, my name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* master tech of over 40 years in the trade. It is my pleasure to assist you with your vehicles problems. As I am not there to hear or see the vehicle I will need to ask questions to get a picture of what is happening so I can better help you, I also do not know your skill levels so do not be offended if they seem to basic. During this conversation you will be given an automated offer for a phone call. You may accept or decline that offer. So what your saying is once it warms up and you shut it off , if you go to start it up again right away the starter does not crank the engine? Is this correct?
Automotive Expert
Ok what may be happening is the starter is pulling to much when hot to perform. So in this case we need to do a starter draw test at the time it does this issue. The starter draw test will show us if it is indeed the starter or an other issue in that circuit.

Ok.
Automotive Expert
Would you feel comfortable doing this test or rather take it to a shop? I can walk you through it if you wish?

To a shop

Ok then , this is what I would have them do, Checking the starter circuit system out as I advised , and perhaps an AVR test just not to miss anything.
