Stalling and Starting problem with My W202 1999 C230
Last Night My W202, 1999 C 280, stalled while.i was idling, waiting for somebody. It hadn't been driven in 3 or more Hours. The outside temperature was about 30°F / -1° C. It was idling for about 7 to 10 minutes. It has not had any rough running issues. It would not restart. The engine would turn over at normal speed. I waited about 25 minutes and still wouldn't start
*** Additional Information *** a few times when I tried to start it after it had sat for about 25 minutes, there were a few times when I turned the key and nothing happened. After that the engine would turn over again ***
After about 1 1/2 to 2 Hours it started without any hesitation. Night before last, similar scenario except I was driving before it stalled. I had driven, mostly on the Highway. Then after I got off the Highway, while I was sitting at a light, it stalled out. I put it in Park and it restarted right away 2 other times recently I had a problem starting. About 2 Weeks ago, I had been to a store for probably about 20 minutes. When u got back in My Car, it wouldn't start. I tried several times till the engine turnover speed slowed. I went back in the store for about 45 minutes, and then it started. Several Weeks before that, when the engine was cold, it failed to start 2 times, engine turning over at normal speed. On the 3rd try it started. I'm not sure where to begin to look Any help is greatly appreciated
UPDATE
It started fine Yesterday. Ran idling for about 12 minutes and then stalled. Restarted with no problem. I drive it around the parking lot for 12 to 15 minutes, never let the RPMs drop below 1000, no problems
I got a Scanner, it Shows these 4 Codes -
P0450 - Evaporative Emission
System Sensor / Switch
P0130 - O2 Sensor Circuit
Bank 1 Sensor 1
P0135 - O2 Sensor Heater
Circuit Bank 1 Sensor 1
P0302 - Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
Thank You
