Engine hard to start from hot or cold engine?

Have not encountered this problem but some say to check the fuel pump or regulator.

You better ask them to check the crank sensor. Look like going to fail. Better if u can send to Shah Alam CoSE to diagnose.

Possible:
1) Electrical prob, installed anything new that may affect the fuel pump?
2) Engine off or loss of all electric?
3) Check grounding/battrey terminal
4) Faulty immobiliser

Hi moors,

my problem is, i can start my car during hot or cold.. but when i drive, suddenly the engine off (not all the time).. Suddenly.. without any warning.. tried to start back but cannot.. tried many times.. after few minutes, the engine can start and i can continue my driving..
i hv send my car to sc but they said, "takdak masalah".. evrything ok.. but it happened again this week.. few times already..
kinda frustrated with sc & proton.. what should i do now...??? any idea..??

go to another SC to check it out...
perhaps the 32 bit ECU issue that some of PE user had that caused the engine died.. this have been resolved by upgrading the ECU Sw version.

btw, not all SC is equipped with the devices. not the normal MUT gadget. but something else.
