Default A4 1.9 TDi 1997 'R' (hard to start from cold)

A few months ago my A4 started to become a pain in the arse to start from cold, it's not the glow plugs, as i've tried changing them with no avail.

I've tried turning the ignition on and off again a few times to see if the glow plugs are not getting a chance to heat up, but still the same problem.

Once the car has heated up, it's no probs, first kick. But with the winter coming in, I really need to get it fixed. There's a chickens chance in Thailand it'll start in sub zero temps.

Any suggestions welcomed. Thanks in advance.
