Here's a new one: My 99.5 Jetta, 266,000km., is getting increasingly hard to start when the engine is warm! Cold starts are instant (it's been down to freezing here at night lately), but if I stop for a few minutes (say 2 to 10), it takes up to several seconds of cranking to start! Cranking speeds are normal, so it's not the battery.
Has anyone come across this problem yet? I have a few guesses, like injector pump or change-over valve, but I haven't done any investigating yet.
