I would suggest you get someone to fault code read & see if a fault code related to low fuel pressure in rail is logged . next if so is check fuel filter and have injectors tested for leak back as faulty injectors will cause loss of fuel pressure & cause starting issues and running issues & it will be intermitant. They also have a pressure sensor on the pump/rail that can suffer poor connections.
