I have a v reg renault laguna 1.9 dti - that will not start. Fuel is not getting to the injectors any ideas!?

i have changed the fuel filter, checked the solanoid, changed all glow-plugs (but car first stopped starting when warm.) Fuel seems to be getting to the pump but no further. Also after i have turned the engine over to try to start it there seems to be a buzzing noise coming from near the fuel pump under the bonnet, but the fuel pump is not electrical powered, it is mechanical. please could someone help me! thanks!

What year is your car? They do not sell those French cars here but my experience with mechanical fuel pumps is the diaphragm in your mechanical fuel pump is probably broken. That is the buzzing noise you here. It is still going to move internally when you turn it over because it rides on your cam shaft. Replace your fuel pump and your little french`y should be running fine. Good luck.

glow plugs so you have a diesle? Well if it's going to the fuel pump and no further then there is either a clog before your fuel pump or you have to have your fuel pump re-adjusted or you need a new fuel pump...
