Thanks - I agree but our stealer is the biggest stealer of them all and in Australia you just don't go to another one as they are too far away. So I as the car still runs fine I would prefer to make that the last resort.
There is no problem when the car is cold but the issue returns when the car is warm or hot on start up.
I guess there is a temperature sensor that tells the ecu to give it more juice when cold (like a choke) - my thoughts are this sensor has failed or stuck in the cold position so on hot starts the ECU gives the engine too much fuel - hence the rpm blip and then other sensors pick up the fault and tell the ECU and the check engine light comes on.
As I am really not keen on going to the stealers I will start going through the workshop manual and RAVE looking for a sensor that does this.
Any ideas what and where it might be - I asume there is a similar sensor on other landy diesels.
Cheers
