Default 2001 C 320 engine trouble

My car starts fine when i first start it. After a drive to somewhere I park and turn it off when i come back it wont start. It would just crank but wont turn over and start at all. I would have to wait anywhere between 5 to 30mins before it would start. Lately it has turn off when i come to a complete stop. I know i dont have any issues with it at all when i first start it for the day but only when i turn it off then i will have issues with it through out the day. what can it be hopefully its something simple that i can do. Dont really have the money lately to take it in.

Default Sounds like pick-up sensor

Hi there,
The symptoms sound like the pick-up sensor(cranck position sensor) is worn out. The sensor checks piston position and tells computer in order to fire/spark. No signal or weak signal, no spark. This is mostly with Automatic gearbox automobiles.

I hope this helps.
