Hi,

I was driving home from work yesterday, stopped in traffic and the engine cut out on me.

I am driving a 2000 R129 SL280 with 51,000 miles on the clock.

I tried several times to start it up straight away but it wouldn't start.

I got help pushing it to the hard-shoulder.

So I left it for about 10mins then tried again and it started up but after a minute it cut out on me again.

I left it again for about 10mins and it started up so this time I was able to drive off and get it to the garage.

Any ideas what may have caused this?

Thanks.

It could be the cranskshaft position sensor.
