As far as I know, C5 does not use glow plugs unless temperature is below
some minus centigrades.
Therefore I think, glowplugs are not the reason for your problem.
Did you check fuel pipe?
My Xantia had a leak in the fuel pipe. This caused a air input over night.
Pumping by manual fuel pump solved the problem tem****arily.
