have you checked the fuel filter heating elemment located in the fuel filter housing also the heater sensor located on the outside of the housing hope this helps diesel might be waxing due to heater or sensor not working.

I have developed the same problem on my Td2.3 LWb
I have replaced the fuel pipes and fuel filter all to no avail. The other reports I have found is that the fuel tank breather pipes may be blocked or the fuel pump relay is in need of replacing.
I have got myself some easy start spray - take off the air filter and as you turn over the engine you spray up your air pipes towards you engine. Obvioulsy this is a TWO PERSON job as you cannot be in TWO places at once. You only need a very small squirt of the spray as well. This will not cure the problem but will help you fire up - Things that I have also checked is EARTHING ..... Make sure you battery has a VERY good earth .. might be worth while replacing or re locating the existing one as I have done. - Check your fuel filter ( replace it ) and all your fuel lines...... You may be asking for trouble if you let your fuel tank get dangerously low and this will pull of the cr*p from the bottom of the tank .... Quality of fuel could be reasons why the pipes could be getting blockages....

Loads of things here to try
