Good luck!
I had a w210 E430 (gas) that was having some related issues. once running it was fine. Starting was the issue. The starter would engage then stop (even though the key was still engaged in the start position.) It was random. Chased a lot of things, turns out there was a service bulletin for the greasing the starter gear with antiseize. I never did that, but I degreased the flywheel and brused antiseize on it through the ports. It helped, but did not cure. I have an 8 page thread about it on Benzworld. Doubt this is your issue, but thought I'd share in case the CPS doesn't solve it....even though it sounds more CPS related.
