Ecoboost Cold Running Problems

Whenever the car is cold during the first mile or so, the car feels jerky i.e.  feels as if petrol is not getting through. As soon as it clears the car performs fine.

The Local Ford  garage has checked over and they said it needed a software update. Car seemed to be ok but after a few weeks the issue returned. So the local Ford dealer suggested it should be looked at by a ford master technician. So during its annual service I asked a bigger ford garage to check. It came back as undetected.

Has anyone got any suggestions please?  Using the dashboard electronic mpg, the mpg varies from 50 - 56. I drive the same style and use the same roads everyday. So not sure if this cold issue has got anything to do with it?

    Mines the same bud, was talking about it today funnily enough. It's the cold that's the issue. I let mine sit for 5 mins before I head out and it helps with the drive.

    unless yours in juddering enough to shake your bones, I'd put it down to the cold weather. Otherwise, send it in and have them look at it again.
