The 500 never did it in 2.5 years / c25k miles. Will monitor it.

Perhaps it's a Euro 6 trait, running a bit leaner on start up or whatever. Mine does clear when you blip it though. I wouldn't worry about it too much unless it gets worse
Cheers
Other than that, running very well. Used zero oil in 450 miles.
Typical journey is 16 miles a day, 80% on the motorway, 10% on 60 mph back roads & 10% urban.
Only 33.3mpg average from new though, a good 10 down on the 500
Got some legal Green Laneing lined up soon

True, I've noticed that......
I had a stall at idle but I was trying out the heated windscreen on a cold morning.
It does seem a little unsure of itself on first turn of the key but it's only been driven half a dozen times though it has just clocked up 600miles!
Very happy with the overall performance and mpg is in the 40's.

Almost like carb icing.... And that used to mess fuel consumption up too.
So far no cold running/starting issues but I have to say that the Cross makes the most amazing range of noises when moving off from cold. It whines, whirs and warbles for the first 500 yards and then normal TA service is resumed. Not bothered in any way about it, rather characterful to be honest?
All the parts have arrived bar the fog light and surround which is due in at the end of this week, hopefully Po will be pristine again early March. Good job the Cross remained driveable seeming as it T boned the Nissan Puke in early December?

I've had this issue today. Will keep eye on it (mileage 32600 and plugs fine, '16 plate). Blipped throttle a bit and cleared. Running on Super Unleaded so can't see another bottle of redex spread over two tanks making any difference. Doubt any dealer would identify anything anyway. :bang:
Appears just drops from cold start revs of 1000-1500 back to 900rpm or so remarkably quickly. Only 16 degrees out there. In the really hot weather it wasn't doing it at all (running lean after only a few seconds). Having 80 mile run out tonight so should be back to normal.
