Faulty Cold Start Valve
When disconnected it would start - hot or cold
When connected it would struggle to start when cold. Solution - TTS was changed and all seemed OK.
So, car now starts if cold i.e. left overnight. However, if you drive the car and then park it up for say 1 hr and then come back, really struggles to start. Disconnect the TTS from the CSV and the issue goes away. Car starts on the button when cold or when warm.
Reading through posts this sounds like a leaking CSV - if so what is the best way to test this? If I disconnect the CSV from the housing - is the priming of the pump when you turn on ignition sufficient or should I run the pump on by bridging the fule pump relay?
Any tips appreciated!

another possible cause is leaky fuel injectors, overnight the fuel evaporates away but when warm its still in there leaving csv on floods engine, disconnecting it solves problem.
