Hello all
The car (W203 C270 CDI) has let me down twice in the last fortnight when it has failed to start after stopping for fuel on a long journey. It will turn over but not fire. It has restarted both times after cooling. The last time it took an hour though, so I need to get it sorted. The problem only seems to occur when it's had a chance to get plenty of heat into it. Short journeys aren't a problem.
Could this be the Crankshaft Position Sensor failure I've read about on here or has anyone got any other ideas? Everything else is fine once it's running.
Thanks in advance
