pulling my hair out
2005 H2 - when warmed up to operating temp, shut off engine and when try to start, everything normal except starter doesn't spin. I have to let the vehicle cool off for aprox. 2 hours before it will start again. Of course the 3 times I have had it to the shop they can't replicate the problem! I had them check the starter, battery, wiring, and had them replace the ignition relay and the neutral start gizmo, no help. Without being able to pinpoint the problem, I guess I am down to replacing the starter and if that doesn't solve the problem, replace the ignition/key switch.
Any ideas?

75 k miles and new battery.
When it does this, everything else (gauges, lights, accessories, etc) is normal, but starter is completely silent and does nothing, so I too am thinking something in the starter is expanding with the heat and losing contact.

my mechanic said to whack the starter with a hammer the next time it doesn't start - if it starts then the starter is the culprit.
The only problem is, now that I'm carrying the hammer, it starts every time, just like the 3 times it's been in the shop!
