Starting Problem S70 2000

2000 S70 Turbo with 72,000 miles. Starting problem where car will do 1/2 crank (2 sec) and stop or "freeze". Turn it back to position two and trying again, sometimes will start on second or third try. Starts perfectly on cold or morning starts. Problem is diffinately worse in hot weather or car sitting in sun on hot days. So far it hasn't left me stranded but it a matter of time. Very iritating. The previous owner (maybe that's why she sold it) reported it four times to the dealer and they replaced: ignition switch. immonbilizer. keys, engine wire harness, starter switch, starter and PNP switch. I replace the engine speed sensor which appearantly is not the answer. Must be an electronic thing because it relate to hot weather. Car runs fine afer starting.

My old 850 had a fuel system relay and fuel pump injection system issue but this was not at starting, just engine fading out occasionally in hot weather. No just grasping a straws. My ETS was replace at 47,000.

Has anyone else had these problem? Help!!!
