Cold start problems

Hello,
I'm experiencing some trouble starting my D when it is cold - especially when it
drops below zero degrees.
Symptoms:
When I turn the ignition key the engine starts, but stops after a second - same thing
happens the second and sometimes the third turn.
Then, the engine starts and runs at a very low RPM - the car shakes and jumps up and down.
If I use the accelerator pedal the engine chokes.
After 15-20 seconds of shaking, the engine speeds up and reach normal idle speed, but it
needs to warm up 2-3 minutes before i start driving, if not - the engine chokes again.
What might this be? Cold start valve?
Anyone know the Bosch part number for the cold start valve?
Thanks.
