Skoda Octavia won't start when engine is warm
I have a 2008 Skoda Octavia diesel with a DSG gearbox and 40k on the clock. The car starts first thing, when the engine is cold, but doesn't start very well when warm. I've taken it to my local garage, but the diagnostics has found no fault codes. Any idea?

Well given that no fault codes were found, the only things we would assume that may be the problem would be .
1 ECT (engine coolant temp sensor)
2 .Condition of fuel filter, fuel pipes.
3. Air filter/Intake air system
4 Injectors.
