Developed a slow leak from poorly seated bleed nipple on my wife's C4s and took the car to Neil Garner at Kemble. While there I asked them to look at the hot start issue familiar to many of us.
Calliper was re-threaded, starter loom and starter replaced. The AOS was found to be leaking so that was replaced too. Heat shields were on their last legs as well, so had those done.
Total bill £1100 (less than Porsche wanted to replace just the starter). Great service and, most importantly, the car turns over like never before (and we have had it since it was a year old). Can't believe we put up with such a duff starter/loom for the last 9 years...

PS edited to add, refreshing to have a company that can engineer repairs rather than simply replace parts.
