Check that the glow plugs are working , the relay is in the e-box(big black box in the right front of engine bay)remove the glow plugs and individually test them.They should glow red after 3 seconds .
Took me a long time to sort, but in my case it was a leaking injector. See if you can get your mecanic to run a leak test. I'm sure the kit has a fancy name, but in essence, they hook up a gadget that allows fuel to pass the flow from each injector into a series of 6 side-by-side plastic tubes - then crank the engine. In my case it was clear that no. 4 injector was passing way, way too much fuel compared with the others. Changed the injector and bingo - instant starting every time.
Hope this helps

Hi Adam,
Bring your vehicle to an auto parts or battery store. Ask if they could perform a 'Load Check' on your battery. This not only checks the voltage, but also the amps, as if it were under the load of turning your engine.
It takes a few seconds and the results are pass or fail. Fail means it's time for a new battery. Pass means we need to look elsewhere.
Comment back the results.
Hope you find this to be very helpful

Unfortunately, there is a trick to replacing the battery.
1) Open the Driver side door.
2) Open the Bonnet and take the battery cover off.
3) Use your remote to lock and unlock the car (keeping the driver side door open)
4) Pull the Negative Lead from the battery first, followed by the Positive Lead.
5) Change or replace with charged battery.
6) Closed down Bonnet.
7) Your windows, sunroof, and key FOB will not work... so follow the next steps.
7a) Insert your key, with door closed into the exterior lock on driver's side.
7b) While turning the key to lock the door, hold down the "lock" button on your remote for 5 seconds while in "lick" position
7c) Your remote will reset, and you should be able to use your remote now
7d) While driving, roll each window down twice. On your third attempt, you should only have to touch the window button, and the window will have reset
Enjoy your Rover!
