Diesel centre listened and said advance solenoid on pump, van ruuning very advanced and very loud underpowered.

Now the symptoms started as i slight louder noise occasionally no loss of power...then all normal for quite a few miles.....then very loud under powered.....the last night it ran back as normal spot on perfect for the evening.....started it up today and fine revved it dropped back to tickover then...knock knock knock back to running shit...

Now is this a normal thing with a pump issue? I would have thought either the pump is fucked or not why is it occassionally running perfect....the diesel centre didnt bother to put on diagnostic machine as they were certain of noise....but 15000 miles, i know its 6 years old but still?
Any suggestions? (on tick over from cold very loud and stalls and gets glow plug light flashing which should store a fault code? I told them this but still didnt hook up) Diesel pump?
