a C32 AMG & S-Works Tarmac
Since I'm having a major brain-fart/pre-mature senior moment and can't even recall what CPS would be, I am guess I've never done a DIY of it, them, etc.
CPS?
I"m just getting too old.

Not an AMG :(
Here's a link that provides some excellent information regarding where you can get the replacement at a decent price. Some very good investigational work by some of our members!

so you mean CRANK position sensor? if it is, you can DIY not too hard...... but you do need some experience with tools and car repairs in my opinion.

If this happens on the road quick fix for 10 minutes driving time:
pour water between engine and firewall on the driver side.
cools down CPS and allows it operate until temp rises again.
It works I have done it.
First sign of CPS:
engine will crank but will not fire after short stop. Restarts after aprox 20 minutes, than it will happen more often, and finally engine will die while driving.
Regards
Jack
