Turbo or valve seals

Think its a common thing with the Diesels to be honest should be a problem, just shifting out the shit left in your system from the previous journey. If it were doing it when warm I would start worrying.

Mine only seems to do it after a good run, or when the DPF has been regen'd. Sounds right

I wouldn't worry mate, you know youv got problems like me when it puffs out blue smoke when you put your foot down in a petrol. Vauxhall told me that the older 1.8 engines are a nightmare for oil burning

I'd be sorting that bloody starter motor out first before you start worrying about what happens after it starts lol, it won't start at all soon if you don't get it looked at smiffy

Oh and speaking to a chap I work with, he said it sounds like the valve stem seals as its common on the astra 1.9 diesels
