Cold Start Issue

Each morning I start the 2005 2.7 TDV6, it seems to start like it's only got 4 or 5 cylinders.

I wait for glow plugs to turn off, turn the key, it starts but runs lumpy for 1 second, battery light doesn't go straight out but after a second the revs pick up battery light goes out...

FYI - all glow plugs replaced, new battery, belts changed and alternator reading as it should..

Just curious if this is how they are, or should they feel better to start?

Could be injectors, can you get an injector trim reading via diagnosic tool?

PS Great minds. Laughing

I doubt it, maybe will take back and ask him to check... Is that a big job?
