Renault megane mk one 1.9DTI
I have an issue with starting when left over night it doesn’t make a difference if it’s warm outside.
it cranks for ages then eventually fires with a puff of white smoke followed by a rough idle for about 20 seconds. If then left for about 4 hours you only have to show it the key and away it goes with no problems. Has anyone have any advice for me please.

Re: Struggling to start after leaving overnight
Just wanted to add I left the car overnight and it’s fairly warm outside today I went to start it and it was ok with just a slight rough idle.
This looks like it’s heat related I have already checked the glow plug circuit and all tested ok could it still be the glow plugs even though I have cleaned them and tested them on a 12v battery.
