Hi guys I have a 3l patrol. It takes a long time to get it to kick over. You can hear the battery dropping in charge. But when it's fired up it runs great. After the morning start its starts fine. Any help would be great.

Have you had the battery checked?
Assuming it is a diesel it could be glow plugs, try turning the key to ignition and when glow plug light goes out turn it to off and to ignition again to get a double glow plug period and see if it starts easier.
Yes it's a diesel. I'll try this and see how it goes. I'm not sure about the battery as it came with the car. I'll get it checked too.
Same issue, have you resolved this?
Cold weather . Battery fail time
99% chance it will be one of four things,
Glow Plugs

Sad battery not getting the glow plugs up
If it's not the glow plugs/ battery it may be your pressure control valve on the common rail
