Default Focus TDCI Idle Problem

My dad has a Focus 1.6 TDCI the 120 bhp one 56 plate

He has just told me he's worried as it's started to idle at about 900 rpm rather than the usual 750.

Is there any thing so agricultural as an Idle Adjustment screw on these? and is it worth using if there is? I think finding the cause of the faster idle would be better? Could it be an air leak somewhere? I did think boost hose but would it make any difference at idle?

Thank you please

As you I'd be looking for an air leak first.
