Smell of diesel.

Might be the cold weather but I seem to get a whiff of fumes on start up and in stopped traffic in the interior. Thought I was imagining it with commuting traffic but ever, ever so slight wobble on Rev Counter at idle.
Could this be a cracked manifold. Seems more prominent at bonnet.

Pull the covers off the top of the engine and have a look around for a diesel leak, if you smell raw diesel then there's a leak somewhere, check around the injectors and all other fuel related lines....
