I've heard of problems like this before.

When it doesn't start, spray the crank sensor with a hose pipe. I know this sounds stupid. But if it starts afterwards, then you need a new sensor.

For this to work, there should be no recorded error codes as well. If there are error codes then it might be a different problem.
