Blocked drains or areas in the matrix on AC system allowing condensed water to build up which is turning to water vapour and blown out the vents on start up.

Don't worry it's perfectly normal. I have had plenty of cars that do the same

Had it before and it's very dramatic. On mine it turned out to be a blocked drain pipe from the air con behind the small panel on transmission tunnel on driver's side: mechanic who did it for me took panel off and just squeezed the flexible pipe which made a load of crap fall out under car and that was that. He did say that if you do it make sure car hasn't been running as there are some hot pipes in there! Hope that helps? 2011 SD4 HSE Auto
