You started by changing both fuel filters, Correct?
Then you verified that the glow plugs were working, right?

Your car needs 3 things to start, well 2 if you are towing starting it, but I'll assume that is not the case.

Air, has some critter made a nest in the air filter?
fuel, pull a line and verify that fuel is flowing from the IP to the injectors.
Glow pugs, verify that they are working.

Can you turn the engine over by hand?
