Nissan Micra 1.0 Passion

I own an 'R' Reg Nissan Micra 1.0 Passion which has recently started giving me a problem. It will start perfectly when cold but after about 15 minutes it switches off even in an idle position. It will re-start again once it gets cold. I've cleaned the fuel port, spark plugs, fuel pump, relay and the distributor. Can't figure out why it's doing that, have I missed out something?
