    Not had then TD4 as mine was an L series - however the symptoms could well be a lift pump in the tank but I think either the crank or cam sensor is problematic with them an being stuck at some stage could be playing up.

    Woko is the man you need to get info on these - so maybe wait as he is normally along pretty quick or send him a PM.

    It will have 3 fuel pumps. One in the tank. One on the lh inner guard. One on the engine. Check if you can hear the pump on the guard running whoever you first turn the key on. If it runs check the pump in the tank. You will have to remove the fuel line for this and have a second person to turn key on and off. Your problem sounds like a fuel delivery problem. It should log a low fuel supply pressure fault which will stop it from starting
