Checked you are getting fuel up ?

my mate who is a bit mechanically minded thinks it is something electronic that may be stopping the fuel getting into the the fuel injector.

No wonder you have starting problems if there is no power to glo plugs .Check this out

01 Scenic 1.9Dci Non Start no glow plug light.

" Had issue non starting (would turn over) the glow plug light would not come on now and then,got to the stage when it took 3/4 attempted start before it would. If the glow plug light came on it would start, would not if no glow plug light all glow plugs ok.
Fault was due black relay in engine fuse/relay box by battery. From the top small black tower relays 4 in total. 2nd from top at fault.
Clean Terminals 1st, test for + live 12 v battery + igntion feed on small terminal.
Change relay (new £15.00 from renault) goto scrap yard look at any renault diesel check part number and thats it. "
