Why is my Vauxhall Zafira Life stalling out at stoplights?

I recently bought a Vauxhall Zafira Life and I've noticed that when I come to a stop at a red light, the car stalls out and I have to restart it. It's really frustrating and I'm not sure if this is a common issue or if there's something wrong with my car. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Tom, congratulations on your new car! Stalling at stoplights is usually caused by a faulty idle control valve. It's a common issue with Vauxhall Zafira Life models and can easily be fixed by replacing the valve. I suggest taking your car to a trusted mechanic to have it checked out and repaired.

Hey Tom, sorry to hear about the stalling issue. This could also be caused by a dirty or clogged air filter. If it's been awhile since you last replaced your air filter, I recommend doing so. It's a simple and affordable fix that may solve your problem.

Hi Tom, I had the same issue with my Vauxhall Zafira Life and it turned out to be a faulty fuel pump. This can cause the car to stall and lose power at low speeds. I suggest having your fuel pump checked and, if needed, replaced by a professional mechanic.
