Struggling to start 1.4 petrol

Bit of a weird one, if I try to start the engine from cold it struggles unless I turn the ignition and wait... like I would with a diesel heating up the glow plugs. Once the car's stopped making those odd whiring noises when you turn the ignition and eventually displayed "OK" it's starts fine. Any idea why this would be ??

hi i would have a stab in the dark with fuel filter ----- the noises you hear could be the throttle hunting for possition though. im sure someone more knowledgable will be along soon. cheers mike
