Paperclip it for codes, probably get a 19, crank sensor if you`re having difficulty starting from hot/warm. As for belts, one auxiliary belt, one cambelt. Visual check may give you an indication on condition but without proof/documentation of cambelt AND tensioner change I`d advise to get them replaced. :y

I would suspect crankshaft sensor re starting issue. Check codes if possible to confirm. Timing belt and aux belt are the ones to change you remove aux belt to get to timing belt covers. Hope this helps.
