Turning over but not starting

After 6 years of trouble free* motoring in my 05 D3 tonight it has refused to start Sad

Time to search heater plugs!

Well I have just had a call from my indy who reports that none of the glow plugs were working.

and.....

He's removed all 6 and replaced them, only one was tricky to shift but it came out in the end. Bow down



I also had a suspension fault that's the result of a rusted pressure tank. New one on order.
