2011 Ford Focus Trend diesel auto doesn't start straight away

My son’s 2011 Ford Focus Trend diesel auto doesn't start straight away of a morning. He has to wait about 10 mins before it starts. Is it something to do with the transmission as a noise comes from the gear stick area?

That’s very odd, and I wouldn’t expect it to be related to the transmission. Take it to a mechanic to check the starting system.
