Thanks bro.
But recently got another issue. My car very difficult to start. Morning is easy, but when the engine is warm, very difficult. Need to crank for 3 to 5 secs to start.(after 1 to 2 hours of parking) I just changed my plug cable and my spark plug is around 28k to 30k mileage.
And when engine is warm, if i start it again after 15 mins, the car engine seems to vibrate alot for about 3 secs.
My mileage now is 171000+ now. 6.5 years already.
Any bros knows whats wrong?

Just to add, when im driving at low RPM,(Auto) or should i say, step abit on the accelerator pedal, there's a very strange sound that comes out. Like grrrrrrrrrr sound. When i step harder, the sound is gone(normal engine rev sound)

check your spark plugs might be due to that

Agreed with bro LMF...recently my ride also like that but i'm on manual. When idling, my engine will knock intermittenly and when moving off at low rpms it will hesitate. But i dun have problems during cold start or warm start. After changing plugs problem gone. My old plugs also abt the same mileage as urs and they were brisk silver. Now on denso iridium.

And also! My parking brake and battery came on while driving. My gauge shows me 14v while driving and when the lights comes on, it falls to below 12v. 11.5v maybe. Den after 2 secs goes back to 14v again.
Is my cerato giving up his life already?

Do they use Shell or Mobil Oil? Is the servicing fees at good rates.

They have stock for Shell i believe, but W40 and W50 no W30 if i recall correctly, I always bring my own oil so never notice, best to bring your own oil, can get from Autobacs la Carrefour la mxtradings la, just to name a few places
