The fact that you were turning probably means nothing. More significant is the fact that you were coasting and the car stalled out while coasting (did it feel as if some unseen hand had turned the ignition key and shut the car down?).

Some M103 engines, in certain MY W124, develop a "cutting out while coasting condition." Do a search in "stalling" and/or "stalling + w124" and you will find plenty of company in your "misery."

Good luck, and if you find a cure, please report it here, so that we can add to the "knowledge library" regarding this issue.

hello BENZ-LGB, I have experienced same stallings of the engine of my car. M103, 260E, 1988 and changed a lot of parts.
Was your car stalling? Have you changed the one on your car? Did it solve the problem?

How do you test the Hall Effect sensor? where is it located?

My car does not have a tempomat, do yo think there is one?

Thanks in advance.
