The engine starts first turn of the key when cold,buy when the weather is
warm and the engine is hot it is very difficult to start.
Any ideas I would be most grateful ?

Petrol pump getting weak?

Unlikely on an HDI but it could be the diesel pump  ;o)

Worth getting the filters checked because, if the lift pump in the tank is
starting to go, it is cheaper the earlier you catch it.   If it's going
there will be signs of metal filings in the filter.

That depends on whether it is a Bosch or Siemens injection system. The
Siemens variety doesn't have the lift pump in the tank.
Details of the car and age would help.

I found alt.autos.citroen on the BT server.   Maybe yours doesn't carry it.

Hi

Let your injectors be tested.
Are you sure the correct type of inj's are fitted ?
