Heave the valve seasl checked for cylinder leakage we have no info on this car. Also if a turbo check that for a bad seal.

I had this problem, I had put a bit too much engine oil in, check the level and take a pint out, other problem I had is that I found that if I changed the glow plugs it stopped, especially on start up, check each plug individually by taking out and reconnect to electrics, see which ones get hot, replace the ones that are cold. Will start a lot better too.
