Can anybody help me?

This is the second time this has happened now.
Basically when I start my car up it runs 100% fine. But I drove for around 10-15minutes to the supermarket, did my shopping and jumped back into the car. When i start my car up i always turn the egintion so all the lights come up etc, then start the engine up.
However this time one light didn't go out but i started it up anyway. The car sounded like it was stuggling to get going and was about to stall. But after a minute it had gone off.
Here's a picture of the light:

This is what the manuel says:
Preheating warning light. This light should come on when the ignition key is in position M; it indicates that the heater plugs are switched on. It goes out after preheating is sufficient and the engine can be started.

Electronic fault warning light:
If this light lights up when you are driving, it indicates an electrical or electronic fault. Consult your Renault dealer as soon as possible.

If anybody can help me it would be much appreciated, especially as I am driving down to FCS this sunday and want everything running smoothly.
Thanks

Your car is a diesel I assume?

Probably needs a set of glow plugs. When were they last changed?

If its a Petrol why are you going on about pre-heating?? :S

IT will be a coil pack/HT leads/spark plugs. But best to get it plugged in to see whats what.
