Desperate the diesel car does not start HOT !

2011 Vauxhall Antara 2.2 CDTI diesel
Car: Vauxhall Antara
Year: 2011
Variant: 2.2 CDTI diesel
Categories: Engine & Drivetrain
After 3 garages and 1800 pounds spent I cannot not get my Antara diesel to start HOT? Its starts cold no issue and drives like a rocket but once the ignition is turned off it takes 8-10 times to start it only by using degrees of throttle to make it fire up. New fuel filter, new high fuel pressure pump and suction control valve I am ready to torch the damn beautiful car ! No error codes ! HELPPP someone !

You could try replacing the engine coolant temp sensor and crank sensor .

This has become the most challenging Antara problem ever lasting for months. If the engine is hot and you shut it down and exit the car locking the door. It does not start hot on reentry. If you turn off the engine and do not lock the door with the key fob its start hot immediately. Also if hot you turn the ignition off and on 2 times lock the door with the and press the throttle to the floor once it starts hot. What the hell is wrong with this car. 3 dealers are lost on this problem.
Can someone tell me on the Vauxhall Antara 2.2CDI diesel where the coolant temperature sensor is located?
