Recently I replaced the turbo hose as it had split, along with a reduction in umph the car would sometimes be a bit of an arse to start.

Turbo hose replaced and car back to normal (syenergied) umph but still is a pig to start.

Put key in and turn, dash lights lit, wait for glow to go out (noticeable on cold mornings) then go to start. Fires pretty much straight away, runs for 2 or 3 seconds then stops. Next time I have to turn it over for 5-10 seconds before it fires and to keep it running I have to "catch it" on the throttle.

Runs perfectly once started, and starts fine when warm.

Which sensor is on the way out?!

Thanks in advance!
 
Been doing more reading, as the car smokes a bit (slight under exaggeration) once started I'm beginning to suspect glow plugs... Reasonable assumption?
