It happens on every 197/200. Common issue.
You get used to it in the end.

If it bothers you, get it remapped or let your car warm up for a couple of minutes before leaving.

Worth getting it plugged in as a lot of people diagnose it as "normal" as they ain't the best when cold but sometimes that points people away from a faulty lambda sensor or somthing similar.

I've never found any of mine particularly bad to drive when cold, infact my 172s were all worse before being remapped

The rear exhaust lambda sensor is on way out,getting code po136 po136 p,on diagnostic tool o2 sensor circuit malfunction bank 1 sensor 2,getting new lambda senor fitted fri,see if that solves problem

Rear lambda should just be there to confirm the car is working so shouldn't cause any running issues if it's the same as the mk2.

If like the mk2 it's the same sensor front and back of the cat then try it in the front first for a few days to see if that cures it since your buying one anyway
