I have an airlock in the fuel line, but I don't know what the bleed valve looks like, I've had a search on google images but it hasn't helped me. Anyone on here know exactly where to find it? Thanks in advance.

They are a common rail diesel engine. Did you change the fuel filter or something?

If you did you should have filled the new filter with diesel but even then you need to pressureise the system which can be done two ways, with the proper priming tool fitted to the fuel filter housing or as is likely going to be your case, turning over the car untill the system pressureises, but if you've let alot of air in there(new filter with no diesel) then chances are your battery will give out before it pressurises:(
