We study first passage times in non-markovian stochastic dynamics: A Brownian particle in a potential is coupled weakly to an external noise with finite autocorrelation time. Starting from a Darling-Siegert type renewal equation, we develop a perturbative approach to find a controlled expansion for the full moment generating function of the first passage time distribution in powers of the coupling strength. This perturbative scheme can be understood diagrammatically. I illustrate the framework with two analytically solvable models, namely by adding coloured noise to Brownian motion on a ring and to the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process.
