ISSUE: Black smoke from exhaust in cool start.

Hi , I got an Audi a1 1.4 turbo 122horse power and there is black smoke from the exhaust system during the first start in cool. No matters what time I turn the car on, the black smoke will be from exhaust system in the first start of the day. It always happens. I do not recall any day that this issue is not there. A friend of mine who also has an Audi A1 told me that Audi Dealer has already replaced the valves, injectors as well but the problem is still there.She detected the issue when her car has just 50km of new. It seems like the Audi dealer does not know what to do and they just keep saying that black smoke is normal because the car has a complex system to start the engine faster by injecting more fuel to the engine during first start in cool and everything about black smoke is a myth.
My car is new it just have 11,500 miles. The last service maintenance was made 5,000 miles ago. Audi dealer has not replaced anything on my car. My friend also has her car in the dealer and the problem is still there. It's been almost 2 months with this issue unfixed.
My car feels good when I drive it, although I am under the impression that fuel consumption is quite high but I may be wrong or getting crazy on this. The car does not have any modification, it has not been altered, everything is from stock and warranty ongoing.
What do you think ? What are the consequences if I continue with this issue? Help! They say that the car is injecting additional fuel in order to have better start and it depends on atmospheric conditions. I've seen that other Audi A1 do not throw black smoke from exhaust system. What do you think ? Help ASAP!
