HELP A.S.A.P Car at workshop!

So sick of problem!

My RRS TDV8 2010 started fine on thursday, was ok for 1000m and then the transmission failure Come up. Turned the car of and when I would start it again it woudnt start! The engine goes round but no start. Have brand new battery.

Today I tried again, engine starts like 1-2 sec then dies and wont start. Have full power on battery but still wont start for more than 1 sec.

So tired of all problems with RR.
If I have it in the warm garage this isnt happening.
And no one seems to know the problem.

Have searched all forums and seems like several have this problem...

Now the mechanic have called and they cant find any fault, no codes etc but the car starts when they have it in the warm garage. What Will I do?
Cant take the car outside because then I still have the same problem, wont start and gear box failure..

Sounds like a glow plug issue. One or more isn't working properly so the engine won't start when very cold. Either test/replace the glow plugs or fit a timer to the Fuel Burning Heater so that it runs for a while before you need to drive. Also results in warm air as soon as you get in. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Called land rover and they tought it would be the main fuel pump under the Hood.

Tdv8 had that problem when its cold outside and thats why it wont start, it dosent get any diesel... wierd but sounds logic

I assume they have checked the glow plug fuses and relays, should be two of each, one for L/H bank and one for R/H bank in the engine bay fuse box.

Cheers
