Exeo Vibrates on Start up

[Abcd123]

I bought a 2011 Seat Exeo 2.0 TDI last week and noticed that when I turn the engine on, it vibrates a lot which causes the rev limiter to bounce a bit but it goes away after 5 seconds or so.

Can anyone help me out?
Thanks.

Could be starting up on 3 cylinders and then when enough heat the 4th cylinder is joining the party.

I would start by looking at the glowplugs

check the continuity of the glowplugs, go from the top of the plug to the engine block, a good glowplug will have a resistance value of circa. 1 ohm

you will probably have to disconnect the wiring from the top of the glowplug.
