ive noticed that on mine too. its all to do with the cold engine start up and warm up fuel mapping putting in more fuel the colder the engine is.

Even on medium length journeys, with the temps outside lately being sub -2 all the time even on a 4 or 5 mile journey the engine is nowhere near normal operating temp unless you leave the heater off.

so no wonder more fuel is used.
