Yes glow plugs need to be replaced periodically, If you're not sure when it was done last, they are probably due. Make sure you get the correct ones (fast glows ) for that year.

Also make sure to run a good crancase flush before next oil chenge, you may be loosing compression due to sticky rings, which will make it difficult to start when cold.
