In comparison to other diesels I have driven, this particular engine seems to take far longer to return to idle.
I have had this, and posted here for some advice.

My mechanic took the car for a terrifying "Italian Tune-up", and we laid a smokescreen that a WWII Destroyer would be proud of.

This seemed to cure the problem.
