Thank you for the response. I have had a couple of issues whereby on starting the car first thing in the morning, the car runs for 2-3 seconds then stops. Car will not start. Wait 3-5 minutes, start again and all appears OK?????

It will not be the glow plugs check fuel supply if it’s a Rhr engine pay close attention to the fuel filter housing prone to leak air into fuel supply

I did have thoughts of dirty fuel filters. Had them replaced last service. The issue occurred the two days after I filled the fuel tank. Possibly very dirty fuel. I will have a mechanic check it out, also, possibility of control relay. Thanks for the advice.
