When i drive my i30n it cold starts fine. It hot starts fine after a maximum of 30/40 minutes, but if i wait for 1.5 to 2 hours it starts fine then dies when trying to idle when i press the button again it starts and runs fine after a long crank.

Its a 2018.

If i give it some gas while starting it sounds like it runs on 3 cylinders for like 0.5sec then runs and idles okay.

Its 36c outside and when i tried to check my oil i burned my hand on the dipstick pull ring so heat might be an issue.

Myself im thinking heat soak/vapor lock has anyone else experienced this?

Edit : no mods! No tune

I know I’m probably the 1000th person asking this but is this normal or am I cooked I just bought the car and had a pre purchase inspection done but I’m still concerned. Drives fine no codes no other abnormalities one audio from starting the car (hot) and one from the engine bay
