Occasional will not start

97 Maxima SE. Great car great shape. . . .but suddenly will not start sometimes. I mean no noise when key is turned- - nothing. Not the battery, plenty of power. It seems that it is somehow connected to the prior run the car had-- heated up and then must rest before restart, sometimes 2 hours in 70 degree weather; or somehow connected to the locking of the wheels left or right immediately before engine is turned off. I've had other cars with bad solnoids or some other electrical part that heats and shuts down the power until cooled-- - possible here? Again the car has 61K and runs like a top- -- if it starts.

Any answers before I submit to the dealer?

Thanks.

just see what your computer tells you. diagnose your car, and see what happens. that would be way easier. and it will save you money from the dealer too.

Hmm, have you had any lag with the car? Like loss of power during driving? I had a bad fuel injector and coil. Started lagging and than one day no start. Than me and my friend started working on it, my friend kept turning it and later I found out I had gas in my cylinders because of his dumba$$. A week work later, and $500 worth of parts, runs like it used to. Sorry for the story but it could be a number of things. As Maximus said, diag it.
