If the random no start becomes more common along with sudden shut down while driving, it may be the crankshaft position sensor on the bell housing near the firewall. Tight access but manageable.

My 2000 C280 went from the random no start to dying while driving down the street. After a no start or dying, and waiting an arbitrary amount of time, car would start and run normal until the next episode.
