Thanks for all the help guys so it more sounds like the cps issue? If I can ask what does CPS stands for and OP? I still will check the RCM it was way too hot to even sit in a car today then try and fix one so ill keep you posted about that , haha about the injectors yes I had my head near the engine bay while a friend turned the key
No worries EX - there are people on here from all over the world, so getting used to a dialect is something we all have to do.
Yes - if your car with turn over (crank) and not start, the most likely culprit would be the CPS (Crankshaft Position Sensor). Here is a good thread that has a nice set of instructions you can print (see post #2) as well as some helpful hints from other members.

When you go to purchase the CPS, make sure you get the BOSCH product. Other members have found that other brands are a bit long and don't work as expected. The attached instructions in post #2 of the above thread has the Bosch part number as well as the Mercedes part number to help you get the right part. I think the Mercedes part (if you have to go that route) will be a Bosch part as well.

Enjoy and good luck!!

EDIT: Just curious - have you checked the car (or had a shop check) to see if it has any stored codes in the computer. That might shed some light on the problem you are having. If you haven't received the code scanner you ordered, some auto parts stores will get the codes for you for free (at least some here in the States do).
