Citroen C2 rough running

My 2004 Citroen C2, gasoline engine, is running rough with 127,550 km. I suspect a defective injection nozzle. It struggles to start, fuel consumption is up, power feels low, idle is erratic, and it sometimes stalls. I think it's a dirty injection valve causing misfires. Has anyone else seen this?

A 2004 Citroen C2 with a gasoline engine is experiencing rough running, difficulty starting, increased fuel consumption, low power, erratic idle, and occasional stalling. The suspected cause is a defective or dirty injection nozzle leading to misfires, as indicated by the emissions light being on. A similar issue was resolved by taking the car to a workshop, suggesting that professional repair might be the most effective solution.

Sounds familiar! I had almost the exact same symptoms on my C2 a while back. Was yours a diesel or gasoline engine? And did the emissions light come on?

Good to know I'm not alone! Yes, mine's gasoline. And yes, the emissions light is on. Did you ever figure out which injector was the culprit, or did you just replace them all?

Ah, gasoline and emissions light...yep, sounds almost identical to my issue. I didn't try to pinpoint which injector. Honestly, I just took it to a workshop. Best money I spent. Saved me a ton of frustration.

Okay, thanks! I was hoping to avoid the workshop, but it sounds like that might be the wisest choice, especially with the emissions light. Looks like I'm signing up for a 515€ repair bill.
