If your car is idling rough it is likely due to an issue with the fuel system spark plugs or the ignition system. To identify and resolve the issue you should:
- Check the air filter and replace it if necessary.
- Clean the fuel injectors and replace them if needed.
- Check the fuel pressure and adjust it if necessary.
- Replace the spark plugs and check the spark plug wires.
- Check the ignition system for any issues.
If the issue persists after taking these steps it may be necessary to take the car to a professional mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.

Why does my car idle rough when I'm parked or picking up speed or driving slowly?
I'm confused. Basically, your car can idle in only two ways, either in park or in gear with your foot on the brake and the vehicle motionless. The way the car behaves in those conditions is very telling to a trained mechanic. Some people will say the car is still idling if you take your foot off the brake but don't give it gas. (If the idle is set to high, the car might move pretty quick. That is undesirable.) That might be a third idle situation. Your car is not idling if it's accelerating. And if you are coasting and slowing down from cruising speed, the engine rpm will be higher than idle speed. So, that's not idling, either. It sounds like your car is always running rough.
What does it mean when someone says a car is idle?
Idling is what your car is doing when it is just sitting somewhere running. As soon as you press on the gas it is no longer idling. Your idle speed is the number of RPMs your engine runs at when you are idling.
Does your car use more gas idling or driving down the street?
It depends on how long you are idling, or how fast you are going. If you know you are going to be idling for a long time, it's best just to put your car in park.
