May be completely off here but have you tried checking the feed from the low pressure pump up to the Schrader valve under the bonnet both for flow and pressure?

I had to replace my low pressure pump two weeks ago due to bad starting and random cutting out. My problem was low pressure and flow. Give it a try! Can check the amp draw from the fuse box it's fuse number 1 and it's a 25amp. Healthy pump can draw between 4-8 amps and deliver 7-10psi to the valve.

Thanks for the reply, I'm waiting for a guage to be delivered so I can check the lpfp pressure at the Schrader, but 8n the meantime I'll certainly check the current draw.
Do you know what fault codes yours had?

Yes I do Bob. Mine had fuel rail pressure too low codes present. P0087 was present. Different to yours but could be related. Will yours start and run on easy start and stay running? Also is your low pressure pump noisy? Mine was absolutely humming. Sounded like a TD5's intank pump on a bleed cycle trying to communicate with aliens. My fuel pump gauze probably didn't help much mind.
