o2 sensor

my c32 idle is slighty unstable, the mechanic found a code for a faulty o2 sensor. Does faulty o2 sensor really cause unstable idle?

Yes, because there is a "magic window" of A/F ratio where the idle will be perfect. If the A/F ratio is outside of that window (either too lean or rich) the car will idle rough or lope.
