My auto picanto stall 2 times for the past 2 days. Once at a traffic light ytd, the other one after I parked today. Oil pressure light lit. When to check the engine oil, lvl ok just change a month ago, coolant ok, radiator ok. Then I also feel my picanto tend to jerk while cruising when the gear change. But not all the time only when I drive very slowly. This happen only today. I also check the ATF, lvl and color seems ok as well.
When to mechanic( the one I usually visit for servicing) he say no problem, but after I left I still feel jerk. And it stall when I reach home and park.
Any expect there to help? What could be the possible fault.

could be your spark plugs or spark plug cables.

could be your engine idling rpm too low.

My mechanic say it's a common issue for picanto. Actually he change quite a few thing like the 2 belts timing and alternator . and some other related parts.

Oil pressure lit, might be oil pump problem. An OBD2 scanner should help. 2 original belts doesnt cost you more than 60bucks labour inclusive. With Crank position sensor + labour may cost abt 200-250. Alternator + others 400...
