Hello everyone! I'm new here and I wanted to share my problem, if you guys have some thoughts about it.

I have 2005 4D hatchback with 1,6l petrol engine and I started to have this weird problem about two months ago.
Every morning, when I turn the power on and the system check starts, there comes a warning triangle with text "cooling sensor" and then the temperature gauge goes to 60°C, even though the engine is cold.
When I try to start the engine, the first 4-6 times fails and after that, the next tries it runs few seconds and then stops.
After several tries, the engine starts to run, but quite poorly. After about 5-10 seconds I can hear some sort of clicking sound and the engine starts to run normally.
After that, the car works perfectly the whole day.

The coolant sensor has been changed, all the wirings included are tested, battery is almost new and all the readings from engine has been checked.
