Beaz Benz

I have a 2004 S430 4-matic and recently my alternator went out. I replaced it with a new one, only to find out my car was overheating. Upon examination I realized the cooling fan wasn’t coming on, so I replaced it with a new one. Now when I start the car, it will run for approximately 6 minutes whiling sitting idle, longer if driving, then cut off. After several hours pass it will start up again and repeat the same process. Has anyone else had a similar situation? What could be causing this issue?

It could be it's the crank shaft position sensor

Throw a Bosch one in and report back

A car that dies out and will not restart when warm , but will restart when cold is a
bad crank position sensor
