Citroen C4 Picasso - Misfiring when cold - innovene
My 1.8 petrol 2008 C4 Picasso is misfiring when cold. After starting the engine it ticks over normally for about 1 minute then it struggles for the next 2 minutes misfiring. After this it runs perfectly. Citroen dealership say it's unusual and not really had the problem with petrol engines. The de pollution alarm is standing however I'm unsure if the 2 are connected.

It could be numerous things. Rather than throwing parts at the problem based on other people's experience you really need a Lexia diagnostic (Lexia is the diagnostic equipment just for Citroen and Peugeot). It reads fault codes and will show live data.

Dealers charge a fair bit for this, but you'll find a network of Peugeot Citroen owners with the gear and will help you for a fraction of the cost.
