Mine was doing that when i first bought her and all i did was to tighten up the cable going from the accelerater to the throttle body, couple of nuts in the engine bay where cable pulls on round thing :P |

Could be a number of things from plugs to filters etc etc. When was it last serviced? |

The wife had an Astra that did this when on full lock while parking, Vauxhall replaced the EGR (exhaust gas reciruculation) valve and all was well. But I'd go with checking the excelorator cable for excess slack first. |
