Hi, I've just bought my first diesel and it happens to be a GTC SRI 2 ltr CDTi. I love it. My only question so far is that when I initially start the engine from cold, it's not a smooth idle and you can feel it through the car with a slight rocking. Is this normal? A common problem? After a few minutes, it idles fine and there seems to be no other issues. I searched for the answer before posting so apologies if the answer is buried here somewhere.

Thanks.
Lee
