in the past week, my car has been a bit rough on idle and occasionally on start up, it seems to be fine but every now and then it is a bit jerky on idle, feels a bit lumpy and a jerk on the car. have no idea what it could be?

Try cleaning the throttle body.

Check codes, maybe o2 sensor

So if you get an oxygen sensor error every now and then, and you have a rough idle, would it be a good indication that the o2 sensor needs to be replaced?

Sorry to hijack your thread, mr OP :p
