hi,i have just got a c5 2.2hdi(had it given)it wont start.
occasionaly it fires up and runs great,so heres the question"is it fuel pump??the fuel is at the top end filter
and seams to be in both pipes

but wont run,it did have air in pipe but it seams to have cleared
"where do i start to look"

I had a similar problem that was eventually traced to the camshaft sensor ( it was telling the ECU that the engine was not turning so it didnt need fuel! ) £60 for a new sensor and it cured the problem.
Hope this helps
