01 1.9 Starting Issue - pcspike
Renault Kangoo Diesel 1.9 van always starts first time in the mornings, but will not rev-up, just runs on a rough tick-over. Switch off and restart and it runs fine. I have to do this every morning. Using the vehicle is not a problem during the day; it will stop and restart all day long, which suggest something to do with cold start.

The only other thing that I have noticed is that the heater indicator Glowplug light stays on until I switch off and restart. The Glowplugs have been renewed.

Has been no more than an inconvenience to me, but now I want to trade it in and need it fixed. Any pointers in the right directions would be appreciated.
