not sure if you have a fuel accumulator, which is next to fuel pump, but this i was the problem with my 380SE. After it wrmed up it would take a lot of cranking and sputtering before it would start. Fuel accumulator keeps fuel from vaporizing in the injector lines and thus prevents hard start when hot.

My 91 SL had the Fuel Accumlator problem. Sounds exactly the same as described.

Your code told you what it was. There are sources for the hall sensors (crank trigger) other than mercedes. They do fail and as you have described.
