Is it normal for my Vauxhall Corsa to have a rough idle?

I recently purchased a Vauxhall Corsa and have noticed that the engine idles quite roughly. Should I be concerned about this or is it a normal characteristic of this car model?

It's not uncommon for Vauxhall Corsas to have a slightly rough idle, especially if it's an older model. However, if the roughness is excessive or accompanied by other symptoms, it could be an indication of an underlying issue.

I've owned a Vauxhall Corsa for several years now and have never experienced any issues with a rough idle. If your car is a newer model and the rough idle is bothersome, it's worth getting it checked out by a mechanic.

I've heard that regular maintenance and cleaning of the fuel injectors can help improve idle performance on Vauxhall Corsas. It might be worth looking into or bringing it up at your next service appointment.

I had a similar issue with my Vauxhall Corsa and it turned out to be a faulty spark plug. Once it was replaced, the rough idle disappeared. It's worth having a mechanic check your spark plugs to see if they need replacing.
