Morning all,

Not an actual issue but one I'd like to hear your views on.

We have a 1.2 engine and when I start it in the morning it fires up absolutely fine, however it also makes three distinctive "rev" sounds before the idle settles to around 1500 rpm.

It's almost like the fuel is being injected in three separate times (so I guess it's ECU related).

Does anyone else's car do this? I only ask because our old 500 never used to do this and it was pretty much the same engine.

Edit: when I say a "rev" sound it's not revving hard by any means, but it basically fluctuates between 1000-1700rpm.
