Could be old oil, could be weak or dead glow plugs, could be weak or dead injectors..

Or it could be just a diesel and they do that from time to time... If it an't broke, dont fix it...LOL

try and change the oil in the HPOP and see if it helps any

what i have readed about this situation is it could also be the engine oil temp (EOT) sensor on the HPOP, ICP, or possibly a sticky IPR.

My truck did this when I had my diablo sport chip in. It would snort twice, then purr like a kitten. Kinda like waking the beast. I thought it was kinda cool and was absolutely not worried about it.
