Rough when cold

[nellyads]

I have not long had a 2002 clio 172, but its started running really rough when its cold (as if its mis-firing) and when its sat idling its not smooth. Anyone got any ideas???

Its normal mate. They are all lumpy and hesitant when cold, something to do with emmissions I think.

Even when warm the idle will be lumpy to an extent... ie you can feel it, but the rev counter doesnt move.

Dont worry about it...

Yep, mine is horrible for the first few mins, lurches, bad idle etc.
