Throttle flap would be my main suspect. Clean, modify or replace. Doubt if it is the glow plugs.

Check the 60 amp strip fuse in the engine fuse box, just found out mine was busted... No glow plugs at all!

Probably better to start a new thread on your problems and which vehicle rather than a 5 year old thread
