van wouldn't start properly when i bought it but bought it anyway as thought it was in good condition for the price.
The van was running when i bought it but it was left for 2 hours then wouldn't start again so got RAC out they sprayed easy start it started but was not reving high till it warmed up then it was ok after ten minutes.
I then drove it to me friends for him to take to the garage the next day but wouldn't start the following morning so got diagnostics done it came up with cam sensor so changed that also changed fuel filter, oil, oil filter but it wont start now???????
The garage think its the timing but when i was driving it, it seemed fine no splutering can anyone advise?????????? please

do no harm to check the glow plugs if it is bad to start first thing in the morning,you could also check the fuel piping for drawing air,check for chaffed pipes,rubbing through especially in engine compartment,dont know on this model if it has a hand primer at the filter but these are usually a source of air in the system,it is very difficult to say if it is the pump but would leave that as a last resort because of cost/time, the most trivial fault on modern motors now can cost a small fortune to repair so next time dont get landed with a lemon,good luck

Bit of a numpty, buying a Reanult that doesn't start, whatever the price. Why do you think the previous owner got ride of it. You've already wasted money on it and it still won't start. Find the nearest scrap yard, they may pay you to take it off your hands. Lesson learned?
