Vauxhall Astra cuts out when warm

Car: Vauxhall Astra
Variant: 1.4 eco tec 16v
Model Year: 2001
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
My car starts fine when cold, but after about 5 minutes when hot it cuts out then won't start until the engine cools down. I would appreciate any suggestions as it,s costing a fortune.

its alittle complicated as it could be a number of things ie egr valve / idle control valve but all that i can suggest is if you can take it to the nearest garage that you now and have them plug in there diagnostics equipement and this will pin point the problem straight away rather than replacing items that wont be doing anything to resolve the problem and money being wasted
