C36 AMG stalls and does not start for 20 minutes

Hi Everybody, I hope some one can help as I am getting quite fed up.

I have just got my C36 back from the garage, I had a Mass Air Meter replaced and the wiring loom rewired!

Whilst driving home and sitting in traffic, the car stalled and would not start.
The engine would turn but not fire up. After about 20 to 30 minutes, It started!

I have heard this could be a crank sensor problem, could this be my problem??

But what made the car stall in the first place??

I would appreciate any comments!!

Do a search for CPS or Crank Position Sensor. You'll see that the symptoms of a bad one are as you've described.
