I second SD Blue on the glow plugs. The glow plug relay is mounted on the drivers side inner wheel well. Pull the black cover off and check that the foil fuse is in good shape. You can also find a small, five pin plug. Pull it off of the relay and you can then test each glow plug individually with an OHM meter.

DO ALSO check your valve clearances. The turbo 5 cyl engines have a habit of the intake valves tightening up.

Let us know what you find.
