[QUOTE="Pete B, post: 266937, member: 3821"] As above. Have not experienced it myself, but have heard many times that the starter bush in the bell-housing is the cause of many starting problems. Hannover didn't see the need to fit a 'hot start relay', therefore one is not needed. If there is a problem with hot starting, there is a fault somewhere which needs rectifying. Fitting one of these relays is just masking the problem. Other than the aforementioned starter bush and the obvious checks on integrity of the standard wiring and conections, I'm afraid I can't offer any other simple answer. So long as the solenoid can be heard clicking in as normal, I would suggest the problem lies once the huge current draw from the starter motor occurs, hence the starter bush/motor theory stands up? Good luck and happy (fault) hunting! :D [/QUOTE]
