Car won’t start but ticks over - no codes

Hello strange one here.

After a bout of verycold weather, the car does not start in the morning. Have called RAC out twice who cannot find the fault. The second one it just started after about 20 mind.

Had a new battery and charge is good.

This morning it will not start so will need to get it sorted.

No fault codes showing on diagnostics.

I’m assuming fuel but unsure where to start first.

Any help appreciated.

Think you might be right. Left ignition on for 10 minutes and it started. Will book her in to get the glow plugs done.
