VE Lumina Commodore
Hi, so as the name suggests I am pretty clueless about cars (need help on a history assignment or tips to bake perfect Macaroons I am your girl) I have a VE Lumina and in hot weather my car often stalls. First time I start it for the day it is fine but if I drive to the shops stop for say 20mins or so then go to start my car again it will turn over but stall quickly. Or it won't start at all. This has happened for about 2 summers now. Since then I have had a new battery, new timing chain, new radiator, new thermostat and I get it serviced regularly. Any ideas?

When was the throttle body last cleaned?
Have U run a diagnostic for any codes?
