Sounds about right mate. My old 2.2DTI (2002, 52 reg) stayed on for about 2-3 seconds max, and that was at minus 10 outside in the winter. Never saw the light in the summer months, even in the mornings. Car always started immediatley
just thought it might be faulty glow plugs as my car is smoking(white/grey smoke) alot on first startup and cold last till engine gets warm then no smoke

Does it start ok from cold? If so, just give it a good service
Start by changing the air filter and fuel filter (fuel system will then need bleeding). Personally I'd do the oil and oil filter at the same time
EDIT >> and check all the vac pipes for splits / perishing
