Could be temp sensor - think if they fail it sends message to ECU that car is warm, hence difficult to start from cold (if it failed the other way you'd get bore wash from excess fuel and high fuel consumption). Think the sensor is in head or block somewhere, one in rad is just for fan iirc.

Worth checking plugs & HT leads/ coils as they are easy to get at, give all that area below engine cover a blast of damp proofing spray - WD40 would do)
