Seat Leon start up issue, any help?

Hi everyone, I've got an issue with my Seat Leon FR 170bhp mk2 2.0 tdi. After leaving the car overnight etc in the morning the car will not start unless I rev it. The car almost starts then just dies. Once the car has started once by revving it, every start after that is perfect with no issues, however after leaving it overnight again I'm back to having to rev it to start it.

I've recently had new glow plugs fitted which did nothing for the initial start issue. The car has a crack in the manifold which is causing a boost leak so I'm getting another manifold fitted but I've no idea what the start up issue is? Has anyone experienced anything like this before?
