Problem overview

Some Chrysler 300 owners report experiencing a rough idle due to several potential causes. Worn or faulty spark plugs are commonly cited as a contributor to this issue. Additionally, problems with the ignition coil, which is essential for providing the spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture, can also lead to rough idling. Malfunctioning O2 sensors, responsible for monitoring oxygen levels in exhaust gases to adjust the air-fuel mixture, may further impact engine performance and result in a rough idle. Furthermore, issues with the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor, which calculates the correct air-fuel mixture based on the amount of air entering the engine, can exacerbate the problem. Addressing these potential causes through proper diagnosis and maintenance is crucial for resolving the rough idle issue in a Chrysler 300.
