One of the most common causes of a rough idle in a Vauxhall Zafira Life is a dirty or faulty idle air control valve. I would recommend cleaning or replacing this component.

R

Another possible cause could be a clogged or dirty fuel injector. Give your fuel system a good cleaning with a fuel injector cleaner and see if that helps.

L

In some cases, a rough idle can be caused by a worn or damaged spark plug. Make sure to check your spark plugs and replace them if necessary.

B

It's also worth checking your air filter and replacing it if it's dirty. A clogged air filter can affect engine performance and lead to a rough idle.

M

Lastly, I would recommend checking for any vacuum leaks in the engine. A vacuum leak can disrupt the air-fuel mixture and cause a rough idle.
