TD4 injectors are guilty of under fueling had all mine tested last back end and ended up with 4 reconditioned ones problem solved at great expense...

Thanks for all the info and reply, as I say I'm just getting my head round all this; so I will most probably ask some dumb questions / make dumb assumptions :O).

The glow plug pre-heat (before starting) temp/time follows this graph.

The post heat (after any start) is shown on the next graph. It shows glow plug operation, even when the engine is quite warm.

Not really. I'm not the authority on the TD4 engine. Arctic2 has more a wider knowledge span of them. I've more general knowledge of common rail engines. I know more about the K series petrol engines, than the BMW diesel lump of junk.
