Hi All,

Im assuming this will be the answer as it is so cold i have noticed that the car is hunting when first started in this cold weather. It does sound like the car is going to cut out and does sound really rough.

Is this just because of how cold it is? Once the car has been driven and got warm it seems fine on startup.

You have answered your own question!
Very few, if any, will perform as normal straight away in cold damp conditions.

I have noticed mine runs like this since the cold weather just seams to run a bit uneven for a few seconds after it has started then runs fine not sure if it's anything to worry about
