Clio dci cold start problem

[Medicpaul]

My 51 plate Clio is suffering from cold start problems. The coil light remains on continuously. I've checked the plugs and there all fine, wiggled connections, cleaned connection etc. Once she's started she'll be fine for the rest of the day, drives like a dream. If I leave her for more than 3 hours she plays up. I have noticed if I pump the priming bulb while someone cranks she starts fine, any ideas?

Just bought a new pre heat relay and no luck. I tested the voltage on the glow plug lead and it was 0v when the ignition was on, this must be something to do with it, anyone have any suggestions??

have you tested the glowplugs with a multi meter or removing them and using a booster pack to test them,
check engine earth leads
sounds like a glow plug fault but the light doesn't usually stay on for more than 5 seconds

Why haven't you bought glow plugs yet? That's the first thing I said it was.
