Can you be a little more specific? :)

RichardM:
I'd try the new earth to the engine...or try what I do...three goes on the glow plugs then it starts immediately.  I know people say you don't need them, but when its cold mine takes ages to start, unless I give it three goes on the glow plugs.  Mines a non-EDC auto as well, not that it should make a difference.

Ralph Hardwick:
Thanks for that.

I do tend to give it at least a couple of goes with the glow plugs before i try and crank it.

I can't help thinking it's a fuel problem :'(
