Hi, I've had my Leon for a month now from new and something I've noticed but not sure if normal, is that from cold the throttle response is a bit slow and the car doesn't properly pick up in first and it feels a bit lumpy.

Is there some kind of electronic protection enabled to stop it revving too quickly on a cold engine. It is fine after about 30 seconds or so, but it's something I've always wondered if normal.

My other half has an Ibiza with the same engine and its something i have noticed myself from cold-starts. I presume it must hold back boost until it has reached a certain temp.
