    Sounds like fuel issue, the CEL is most likely a 559 code for fuel pressure. Is this a common rail engine?. if so could be the high pressure fuel pump, have seen many issues with the ceramic rods in the pump. also check that the lift/primer pump is working.

    does it crank but not start? not crank at all? with the key in the on position can you hear the fuel pump running? need more info
