Default Random no start.

Anyone ever have starting issues after running your vehicle for short periods of time? Sometimes if I make a quick trip (less than 10 minutes) to like the gym or something, when I come out to leave my car won't start? Also sometimes it will just stall at lights or when parked and idling? My thought was maybe a crank sensor? I'd have to put the voltmeter to it. The car will eventually start just sometimes it starts quicker than others, sometimes it takes 20 minutes. Any input will help, thanks.

Clean your EGR valve. It sounds like it's having issues.

yeah I would check egr too, thought fuel pressure but don't think so. Mine will hesitate after i drive it a while and shut it off then try to start it 15-20 min later but it always starts and runs fine
