hi all, ive just purchased a 2.0 esp for my misses, everything on the car is running brilliant, however on a cold start it has a lumpy idle for around 30-60 seconds just feels like its pulsing, also it seems a little slow to crank but never fails to start, and no smoke whats so ever, all fluid in check, and after 30-60 seconds it settles and purrs normally, any ideas on what my problem could be???
regards mat
 
try chucking a bottle (more exactly, the contents thereof) of Forte Diesel Treatment in the tank.

MAF sensor is worth cleaning. There is no throttle body. Diesel engines don't have throttles.
 
sorted , battery knackerd hence the slow cranking, regards to the lumpy idle i found it was the distributor. one of the ht leads had melted inside and rotted onto the distributor. apparently its common for the distributor to pack up on all focus's,
