Have not been following this thread, so sorry if this has already been discussed. 
   
  My first thought would be a drop in residual fuel pressure. Possible sources...leaking fuel line, loose connection at the filter or pump, ...but could also be the fuel pressure regulator (FPR). IMO, first steo would be to put a pressure guage on it per Bentley and watch to see if it drops after your 10 minute "starts ok" window.

Hello,

I'm having issues with the car starting once it is warm.
this is what is happening



Mine starts fine in the winter, but in the summer, after the car is warm, 
requires 3 attempts to start. I assume mine is the fuel pump check valve.

It will restart within 5-10 minutes of being shut off, but any longer than 
that usually takes 3 attempts.
